It is the halfway point of Patricia Piccinini’s exhibition “That\u2019s Us!”<\/span><\/em>, presented at the Center of Contemporary Art in Toru\u0144. The exhibition accompanying last year’s edition of the EnergaCAMERIMAGE International Film Festival<\/span>, has already gathered, despite difficult pandemic times and limitations, over 5,000 viewers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The hyperrealistic work of the Australian sculptor evokes extreme emotions in the audience, from understanding the humanistic ideas underlying the creation, admiration for the craftsmanship of hybrid figures, to fear of the macabre presented in\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>Piccinini’s<\/strong>\u00a0world. Regardless of the feelings, each visitor walks out of the exhibition space with a reflection on various problems of the modern world resulting from intolerance, the development of science and technology, and environmental pollution. The artist non-invasively prompts us to reflect on the directions of human, nature and technology development.<\/span><\/p>\n

The exhibition covers 2,000 m2 of the Toru\u0144 CoCA gallery and presents over 50 sculptures and multimedia installations of the artist, including the most famous ones, with which she won the hearts of the audience at the Venice Bienniale in 2003. One of the video installations, “We travel together”<\/em><\/span>, can be seen at the CoCA for the first time ever. The exhibition “We are!”<\/span><\/em> is the largest, organized outside Australia, presentation of the work of this outstanding artist. Patricia Piccinini\u2019s<\/strong> artistic practice is embedded in a firm commitment to environmental and eco-feminist issues. In sensuous, complex works Piccinini investigates how we live and forge relations in an era when the natural and the artificial connect in new ways. Her works involve ethical messages about empathy and care for all the creatures and plants we share this earth with \u2013 and for the still unknown beings that will live among us in the future. Her universe offers dreams and hopes of a future full of loving interspecies kinships and invites us to imagine the world anew.<\/p>\n

The curator of the exhibition is Marek \u017bydowicz<\/strong> – director of the EnegraCAMERIMAGE International Film Festival<\/strong><\/span>. The exhibition is produced by the World Art Foundation<\/strong> in cooperation with the Marshal’s Office of the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodeship<\/strong>, the City of Toru\u0144<\/strong>, European Film Center Camerimage<\/strong><\/span>, Tumult Foundation<\/strong> and the Institute of Cultural Exchange in T\u00fcbingen<\/strong>. Canon<\/strong> is the technological partner of the exhibition.<\/p>\n

The exhibition will be open till 10 April, 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n
