I WANT TO BELIEVE IN NOTHING

The exhibition is open from: 05.04.2024 - 26.05.2024 

The new exhibition of the band Nagrobki (Maciej Salamon and Adam Witkowski), has been created on the occasion of the decade of their intense presence on the Polish art scene. The duo have operated at the intersection of music, visual arts and theater. On the last day of 2023, they wrapped up 10 years of their activity:

We have officially released 8 different types of albums, and we have not released at least 3 (with theater music). That gives an average of 0.00219298 released albums per day and 0.00082237 unreleased albums per day. We played 255 concerts and theater performances, which gives an average of 0.06990132 performances per day. We published one book, or 0.00027412 books per day. As Nagrobki , we opened 3 individual exhibitions and participated in at least 4 collective exhibitions - 0.00191886 exhibitions per day.

exhibition opening and birthday concert of Nagrobki: 04 April 2024 (Thursday), 7pm.

authors: Maciej Salamon, Adam Witkowski
curator: Stanisław Ruksza
co-ordinat: Anna Sienkiewicz-Rogaś

Nagrobki use minimal resources in the maximum way. The exhibition juxtaposes Maciej Salamon's monumental composition of The Last Judgment, filled with necropolis iconography of death and the inevitability of today's apocalyptic premonitions and fears (including ecological or socio-political ones), with the group's latest painting and site-specific works created for the show at TRAFO. They are complemented by a new musical interpretation of Krzysztof Penderecki's Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima.
