POMADA posters in The Poster Museum







POMADA posters are featured in the huge show at The Poster Museum in Wilanow

The 15th Polish Poster Exhibition
7 July – 4 September 2011
The Poster Museum, Wilanow (Muzeum Plakatu w Wilanowie)
Warsaw, Poland

The Polish Poster Exhibition is a periodic, nation-wide display organised every two years by the Poster Museum in Wilanow. The Exhibition concentrates the most celebrated poster artists based in Poland.

Nearly 100 artists, over 500 works can be seen in The Poster Museum’s both galleries in Wilanow. The display accounts for the greatest applied graphics review in the country, because the posters mirror not only the latest trends in the graphic design, but also – inevitably – the whole cultural life of our country from the last two years.
Actually, not only this determines the uniqueness of our exhibition. Spontaneity and vigorousness of The Polish Poster Exhibition – these are the key issues for us, the artists and the organisers. Diversity, opulence of colours, spectacularity, freshness – these expressions reflect the exhibition’s character the best… The display immediately captures all what is happening in the Polish art and culture. That is why some people even mention guerrilla art – artistic guerrilla movement in the context of The Polish Poster Exhibition.

Do big, specifically gay events such as Gay pride and the Eurogames contribute to the acceptance of homosexuals in the Netherlands or do these in fact lead to segregation ?

On the whole, the Netherlands has embraced the gay community, only a small percentage of the population does not acknowledge it. Gay couples can marry, adopt children and gay characters are no longer absent from TV programmes and respectable suburban neighbourhoods. Is the image presented by the gay community and the media still accurate these days ? In 'THE ONLY GAY IN THE VILLAGE' artists reflect on the current status of homosexuals.

TERAZ POLIŻ Dekameron

Znacie je z POMADY – Grupa Artystyczna TERAZ POLIŻ to bez wątpienia jedna z najważniejszych rodzimych żeńskich formacji teatralnych. Jej twórczynie zdecydowanie opowiadają się przeciwko dyskryminacji, handlowemu traktowaniu i przemocy wobec kobiet oraz tworzą spektakle po auspicjami Amnesty International i Centrum Praw Kobiet.
Tym razem TERAZ POLIŻ rozprawi się z Boccacciem. Oczywiście w rolach głównych – czcigodne, cnotliwe białogłowy u ramienia mądrych, dwornych mężczyzn, w tle wiejska posiadłość – a żniwo zbiera zaraza. Rzecz jednak w tym, że relacje żeńsko-męskie zobaczymy w obsadzie wybitnie żeńskiej. Choć nie zabraknie prężącego się konia. Pięć aktorek zmienia płeć na pstryknięcie palca i realizuje pikantny „Dekameron”– jak to TERAZ POLIŻ ma w zwyczaju – bez zbędnego asekuranctwa, z całym swoim naturalnym wdziękiem.
