Quadratum Nigrum
by Jakub Woynarowski
(project created in cooperation with Mateusz Okoński and Jakub Skoczek)
"Quadratum Nigrum" is a larger artistic venture, which includes multi-threaded activities being realized based on, inter alia, visual atlases (often refering to hermetic codes), archives collections and ephemeral sets of ready-mades. As an alternative to museal collections based on rational methodology, authors of the project see contemporary curatorial practice, as a return to modern tradition of cabinets of curiosities (wunderkammer) - subjective collections of objets trouvés.
