An Exhibition by Artists from Fine Arts Faculty, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University (UMCS) Lublin, Poland
The Institute of Fine Arts (ISP) at the Arts Faculty of UMCS in Lublin already possesses an established place on the map of Polish education of arts. Within the Painting, Graphic Design and Art Education faculties students have the possibility of familiarising themselves with all forms of artistic expression, spanning styles from classic to the modern.
Most of the ISP academic staff are active artists involved in a variety of artistic techniques and mediums. Showing all approaches within one single exhibition in a country as geographically distant from Poland as Australia would be extremely difficult, therefore we?re implementing a certain formal condensed selection in the choice of artists and works for the exhibition.
In the Polish language there exist common sayings: ?paper will accept anything? or ?paper has patience?. They indicate the neutrality of paper as a carrier of information or artistic content. However paper itself can be used as a creative medium (paper art), both in the literal and metaphoric sense (the recycling of meanings). Those two aspects of paper are the exhibition?s topic and a common denominator linking the presented works.
