The Polish-U.S. Fulbright Commission and the Medical University of Warsaw are pleased to invite for a next open lecture, which will take place on Friday, Nov. 29, at 12:00 (noon) in the MUW's Didactic Center, Auditorium B (2a, ks. Trojdena St.). The guest speaker will be an internationally acclaimed visual artist, Endi Poskovic.
Endi Poskovic is a multimedia artist working in printmaking, drawing, sculpture, and animation. His creative practice considers a range of technologies as a way to explore certain characteristics of printed image: translation, multiplicity and seriality. Through his visual work, he seeks to construct representations that suggest broader themes of displacement, memory and reconciliation. Merging visual image with text, Poskovic’s Majestic Series shifts the reading of the print by providing an unexpected new context, forcing the viewer to continually reinterpret.
