"The artist's eye": Grzegorz Wnęk
Painting Exhibition
The Frissiras Museum, in continuance of the exhibition series "The artist's eye " presents from April the 14th to September the 30th 2010 in the building of Μonis Asteriou 3, the exhibition " The Artist's eye: Grzegorz Wnęk". In the work of the Polish painter Grzegorz Wnęk, painting unreservedly goes back to the traditional representation. Choosing to leave behind complexes and reservations regarding its links to the past, painting maintains the belief that its proposal is more contemporary than ever. Indeed, it seems that his painting has evolved to a form of expression capable of providing convincing answers in many of contemporary art's tantalizing questions. Wnęk has no restrain in presenting the misery in everyday life and does not succumb to the rules of decorative art that has pervaded to such a great extent contemporary painting. On the contrary, his work consists an open invitation to debate and social action, thus rendering itself to great art. Consequently, as such, it has a place in the Frissiras Museum. The opening ceremony: 14th of April at 20.00.
