The temptation of St Anthony by Wiesław Szamborski, 1978:

propaganda: I am very obsessed with traditional and especially biblical themes depicted in a modern way and this panting is so cool. I saw it in Kraków last year and I was immediately drawn to it without even knowing what it represented.

Sisters (Phenia) Małgorzata Mirga-Tas, 2019:

propaganda / about the artist: Małgorzata Mirga-Tas work often uses textiles, drawing back on her cultural background and bringing it to the forfront, the art takes up the space and attention with the bold colors and patterns, both things that are often denied to Roma in our society.

The work is based on photos taken while making preparations for the exhibition Pany Chłopy Chłopy Pany (Lords peasants peasants lords) in 2016 by the same artist, a process in which the artist family helped with the fiber work. Each woman is working on their own work, but they are connected, just like the viewer is connected to the tapestry by engaging with the art.

Wesiune thana by Małgorzata Mirga-Tas, 2016:

propaganda: This kind of art installations are a lot about space, who gets to dominate a space, to transform it, what does it mean to transform it in which way - the artist is Roma, the specific side transformed here is a museum, showing Roma housing and objects. The article in the link is a cool read about it, and really talks about it much better than I ever could, give it a read!

Space of unknown growth by Magdalena Abakanowicz, 1998:

propaganda: At least people I've talked to seem to be more familar with Magdalena Abakanowiczs "Agora" but I wanted to high light this work in contrast. Agora with the headless humanoid figures has something creepy, the artist spoke about crowds tendency to blindly follow even into horrible violence, but it also for me has the depersonalisation/objectification of the figures which is its own form of violence - in contrast these large rocks are softer in a way, more approchable, a nicer story, the title of the work with the shape of the rocks and the surrounding forest makes me thing of seeds, hope - of course just because something is a nicer story to hear doesn't make it a better story to hear, I am glad that hard to shallow work like Agora exist, we need to think and talk about stuff that is hard, but I also like that work like "Space of Unknown Growth" exists.

Małgorzata Mirga-Tas da Schifanoia: re-incantare il mondo

Małgorzata Mirga-Tas da Schifanoia: re-incantare il mondo

Presentata per la prima volta al pubblico nel 2022 in occasione della 59. Biennale di Venezia, l’installazione Da Schifanoia: re-incantare il mondo dell’artista rom-polacca Małgorzata Mirga-Tas arriva ora a Ferrara. Nonostante non sia mai stata esposta in città, è come se l’opera tornasse a casa: un ritorno (anabasis) di carattere simbolico con cui l’artista si propone di ripagare il debito…
