FIRST PART: Black space and trauma ruins. How do leftovers perform?
Black space is a term used by American artist Theaster Gates in reference to places abandoned by their inhabitants due to process of gentrification. In brief moment when black people left and white bulldozers are about to destroy their traces, the artist intervene. On the other side of the world Polish artist Robert Kuśmirowski reconstructed ruins that never existed. His Traumagutstrasse was site-specific work produced for gallery belonging to Warsaw Academy of Fine Art. I would like to compare those two works and two ways of playing with leftovers to ask how they perform in those two seemingly different contexts.
SECOND PART: How to make political theater? Polish socialist realism as historiographical question
lecture will tell a story of the spectacle premiered in 1949, exactly when the totalitarian system was established in Poland, that till today is considered the only one socialist realist theatre piece that actually succeeded. It was Brygada szlifierza Karhana by a Czech author Vasko Kania depicting workers’ struggle for better results in the tractors’ factory. It was produced in New Theatre in Łódź by a group of young, leftist actors who believed in political efficacy of theatre and wanted it to become a tool of establishing new, better social order.
