This publication is issued in conjunction with an Agnieszka Kalinowska`s individual exhibition titled “Watering Hole”, which took place at the Łaźnia Centre for Contemporary Art in summer/autumn 2016. In her work, Agnieszka Kalinowska examines the mechanisms that govern the world and people functioning within it. At the “Watering Hole” exhibition in Łaźnia CCA, the artist analysed survival strategies employed by humans; those eternally played out schemes, whose existence – like access to water – guarantees a seemingly peaceful existence. ”Watering Hole” exhibition in Laznia Centre for Contemporary Art featured mostly new works of the artist and focuses on the questions of freedom and subjugation.
The publication includes the essays of the Dutch cultural theorist Mieke Bal and British artist and theorist David Rhodes.
