Wrocław, Poland (May 2012)
exhibition
That project was my first curatorial experience. The idea of the SUW[1] [2] began to take shape and the SUW’s rules were slowly emerging. This attempt pointed the way for the next editions of the SUW and developing the idea.
M3 was organised in an apartment on Rostafinskiego Street in Wrocław, a student flat inhabited by a few students of the Academy of Fine Arts. The apartment was about 120 m2 and was humorously called Rostafinski Café due to its vibrant atmosphere. It was located in Nadodrze district – a part of the city that back then was under the revitalization program aiming at gentrification of the old part of the city.
The idea behind the exhibition was to include not only a comment on the revitalization of residential architecture, but also to revive the cultural life of the district and bring a creative potential to the people there. 39 artists coming from 7 different countries were invited to participate in the exhibition. Their works were related to the broad idea of flat – a concept that brings various memories, emotions and associations.
