Robert Kuśmirowski, who was a guest this year at ArtBoom Tauron Festival, will present his most recent project: Muzeum Sztuki Zdeponowanej (MSZ), that is the Museum of Deposited Art (MODA) at Galeria Biała in Lublin. The exhibition will last until 10 November.
The project of creating MSZ was presented by the artist in Neapol, at the Foundation Morra Greco. In Italy, where he was a guest within the domain of the artistic project already for the second time, Kuśmirowski showed twelve works: six of his own and six by Roman Ondak, Philip Akkerman, Rafał Bujnowski, Jan Gryka, Jacek Wierzchoś and R.E. Acres. The idea used an unconventional measure: collectively destroying obtained works, burning them and laying them in urns, which are then presented in a specially arranged space. At Galeria Biała in Lublin, where the artist debuted, other works are to appear, which Kuśmirowski wants to subject to a process he calls “complex recycling in the scope of liquidating and merging art”. The archive-museum created this way is to have the character of a columbarium, a tomb full of urns, it is to be a type of Museum of Deposited Art. According to Kuśmirowski, it is to show the evanescence of works of art, created, then sold, passed on, destroyed.
