The best diplomas by students of the Magdalena Abakanowicz University of Arts in Poznań were presented as part of the 44th edition of the Maria Dokowicz Competition. The motto of this year’s competition was ‘Narration’. Among the distinguished works are projects from various fields.
The best projects were announced on 8 November during an vernissage held at the Słodownia Gallery in Stary Browar in Poznań. The event is accompanied by an exhibition, which runs until 17 November.
This year’s edition bears the slogan ‘Narrations’, which seems to capture the essence of the reception of the competition and the exhibition, where the public has the opportunity to get acquainted with a wide range of creative tales on a great variety of subjects developed in various media,’ explains Professor Maciej Kurak, Rector of the Magdalena Abakanowicz University of Arts in Poznań.
