GALERIA GDANSK ITD.
community art project
August - November 2017
Opening: 22-25 October 2017 | Do Studzienki, 24 - Gdansk
︎︎︎
GALERIA GDANSK ITD. is a museum working as a shop. Or a shop working as a museum. GALERIA GDANSK ITD. shows a selection of objects designed to tell unheard or invisible narrations given by a group of Gdansk citizens, the ‘tellers’. Narrations about autobiographical turning points, personal revolts, slow realizations and self-healing decisions, ‘etcetera’, ‘I tak dalej’. Collectively they propose a ‘counter-portrait' of the city of Gdansk.
GALERIA GDANSK ITD. offers its clients the opportunity of choosing among the selection of limited edition objects the ones they would like to take into their everyday life places. In this way, these so-called *marginal* narrations enter families, offices and friendship networks infiltrating the official one.
GALERIA GDANSK ITD. opens its doors in Do Studzienki 24 between the 22nd and 25th of October. Beside the collection of narrations, it hosts a series of public talks, performances, and concerts. Between October 23rd and 25th it is open every day from 12 am. In November and December the collection left the GALERIA to tour the city & meet its clients in their own houses.
