KRAKOW
Creating a context
[Project Leader: Gennaro Postiglione; Students: Yvon Ariese, Florian Canel, Alex Charrington, Jasper Coppes, Lea Kühne, Phil Morris; 6-20/07/2014]

This project presents the opportunity to developing a proposal for a temporary piece of public artwork for Krakow city centre as part of an imagined International Biennale. Working collaboratively, the cross-disciplinary, international groups have been asked to respond creatively to aspects of the second largest and one of the oldest cities in Poland. Krakow has a rich and complex history, ancient and modern that cannot fail to inspire. We have also been working with the Bunkier Sztuki Contemporary Art Gallery based in Krakow city center. Using the concept of an international ‘biennale’, the curriculum will emulate a ‘real’ professional context. Art and architecture students have been invited to respond to a specific site and, within a given time frame and specific practical constraints, invent, construct and display new innovative artworks and spatial solutions. This practice led approach have embedded in a theoretical framework that enables a critical discussion and understanding of European art and architecture production and exhibition practice.
