special edition
5th-8th May, 1994

In 1994 WRO has presented a special edition with a twenty year retrospective of Polish video art. The Duże Studio (Big Studio) of the Polish National TV has been transformed to a gallery of installations and performance. The studio audience had the chance to participate in the performances of Ryszard Jedros, Antoni Mikolajczyk, Artur Tajber, Maciej Walczak, and Grupa Lodz Kaliska. An installation by Lyzka Czyli Chilli group featuring sculptures talking to one another had been featured. Wladyslaw Kazmierczak’s Crash and Piotr Wyrzykowski’s Ucielesnienie (Embodiment) had instantly made history of Polish video performance. The special event of the Monitor had been the first Polish retrospective of works by Wladyslaw Starewicz, a pioneer of animated film in the beginning of XX century.
