SMS - SZCZECIN | MELBOURNE | SZCZECIN
Guildford Lane Gallery
Thursday 15 October 2009 to Sunday 01 November 2009
Opening Thursday 15 October 2009 6pm
Presented by the harbour City of Szczecin, capital of the West Pomeranian province in Poland, SMS – Szczecin - Melbourne - Szczecin opens at Guildford Lane Gallery this week. Featuring a selection of works by ten artists, the exhibition will be officially launched by His Excellency Mr. Andrzej Jaroszynski, Ambassador of the Republic of Poland on Thursday 15th October.
Of the artists represented, five (Przemyslaw Cerebiez –Tarabicki, Danuta Dabrowska, Jaroslaw Eysymont, Waldemar Wojciechowski and Wojciech Zielinski) are based in Szczecin, whilst the other five (Andrzej Janczewski, Longin Sarnecki, Adam Simmons, Gosia Wlodarczak and Jarek Wójcik) are based in Melbourne. Yet they all are bound by one place – a city in Poland – where they were either born, have lived or worked.
The concept of the SMS (Szczecin – Melbourne – Szczecin) project revolves around communication, dialogue and bilateral exchange. Just as the abbreviation for Short Message Service (SMS) has become synonymous with communication itself, SMS the exhibition is a way of prompting and engaging artists from diverse areas in art practice and geography.
