About the Item

Urszula Wilk – artist statment: I have always been interested in the idea of infiniteness of a painting and its opposite – that is the physical finiteness of the painting. This physical finiteness of a painting appears when the painting acquires its physical, material dimension. For me, the crucial thing is whether a painting, which was created in a certain period and constitutes a closed whole – can change. Through its modular construction the picture’s painting structure generates infiniteness within itself. Can a finished, in a sense “closed” whole become something new again and again? Can it expand and divide or overlap and thicken, transform all the time? ‘ If reality never rests, to paraphrase Futurist painter Boccioni, painting – once it has been drawn out of the frame of a painting – becomes an immaterial space that can be visited and crossed; it becomes an environment of light, a visual, spatial, total and involving experience.” Urszula Wilk graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Wrocław. In 1986 she received her diploma with honours at Professor Zbigniew Karpiński’s atelier. In 1987 and 1988 Urszula Wilk was a grantee of the Minister of Culture and Art.

    The art of Philip Wittmann is founded on signals. For him, signs serve as a bridge between abstraction, reality and writing, too. When he was 26 years old, he began painting as a hobbyist using 'pure' abstraction. However, he believed his work lacked a solid foundation upon which to grow. ​He discovered a book on the origins of the Chinese alphabet, which origins are essentially signs, in 2008 while taking a calligraphy class. The 26 letters of our Latin alphabet are less pictorial than the Chinese characters as we know them now. He discovered that pictorial representation is more prevalent when examining the origins of alphabets—all alphabets, in fact—because there is frequently a similarity between the sign's true meaning and what it is meant to represent. For instance, the symbol for a turtle in the original Chinese script resembles a turtle. Wittmann loves signs as they leave room for interpretation. For instance, if one writes “the sky is blue”, one will make for themself a mental representation of a blue sky, even if each one-off us will probably have some nuance in our own mental representation of that blue sky. On the other hand, a sign can...
