Iza Tarasewicz. CLINAMEN
12 May 2013 – 11 August 2013
Clinamen borrows its title from Lucretius’ description of a spontaneous and unpredictable swerve in the motion of atoms, the smallest possible impulse that initiates turbulence. Iza Tarasewicz and Post Brothers created an exhibition at Królikarnia in which the artist’s works and objects from the warehouses of the National Museum Collection interact with each other. Tarasewicz’s sculptures – made of plaster, clay, concrete, pitch, gold, glass, ash, and animal intestines – have been juxtaposed with objects from the collection that testify to the local history of Królikarnia: the spatula of master Dunikowski or a postwar photograph of the ruined palace. Tarasewicz’s creativity exhibited within the archival materials provokes questions about the status of sculpture as an artistic discipline, its form, materiality and the artist’s role in the process of creation.
