Words and Metaphors

Words and Metaphors. The latest illustrations from Wrocław, Poland | Ord og metaforer. De nyeste illustrationer fra Wrocław, Polen

We would like to invite you to an exhibition of illustrations by students, graduates and staff from the Graphic Design Department of the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Wrocław at Dokk1 in Aarhus, Denmark. The exhibition was created as part of the cultural programme of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the EU

The exhibition presents the effects of a long-term educational process that does not suppress creative energy, but rather releases it. The works presented at the exhibition are characterised by precision, sensitivity and an uncompromising vision. The masters of image, word, metaphor and succinct expression – and their talented students who become independent artists during their studies – do not shy away from tackling difficult subjects. Although their creative approaches, styles and techniques vary, they share a common energy and passion.
