The OPEN ART project creates an exceptional opportunity to present interdisciplinary, inter-faculty and inter-university activities of students of the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. 25 artistic projects from October 15 to November 15 will take over the unconventional spaces of the Campus of the University of Economics and the former hospital in the Wesoła District (ul. Kopernika 15A).
The above-mentioned event will allow to gain unique experiences from the borderline of visual and performative arts, as well as music, acoustics, optics and kinetics. The idea of confrontation, exchange, mutual inspiration and cooperation, which are provided by creative solutions, was the main assumption of the open-call, within which 25 interdisciplinary artistic projects were selected. Students from various faculties and universities submitted plans of the exhibitions, which will be demonstrated as part of OPEN ART.
Moreover, the exhibitions will be accompanied by a series of events, which will constitute an integral part of the shows. The OPEN ART programme will consist of theatre shows, performances, interventions, concerts, workshops and lectures.
OPEN ART constitutes a comprehensive project that is supposed to induce the combination of art, artists and audiences. The works of artists scattered in the space encourage to start an unusual game of scavenger hunt, in which new experiences and emerging contexts are the most valuable finds.
This year’s edition of OPEN ART was organised in cooperation with the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, the Kraków University of Economics and the Art at UEK project. The Development Agency of the City of Kraków is a partner of this event.
Open Art is created as part of the Art at UEK project.
