Pjotr,

Nice that you are back. It would be nice to see your exposition in August 2012 in Gallery at the Books in Arnhem. It is great that the Polish presidency of today and the fact that Wroclaw will be the Cultural Capital of Europe in 2016 ( http://www.wro2016.pl/en/wroclaw-2016/ ).
Maybe the European Championship 2012 will bring also extra attention to Poland as a cultural country. Hope you are okay!

Cheers,
Pieter

I saw Piotr Gardecki and his new drawings in the Netherlands this Sunday. It was at Huntenkunst in a nice rural area of the Netherlands in the East of Arnhem, de Achterhoek, in the small town Ulft, near the town Doetinchem. I had never been in that area, so it was nice to see both the exhibition and the landscape of de Achterhoek. I also met another Polish artist via Pjotr, his former classmate at the Wroclaw art academy, friend and Varsovian artist Pawel Bloch. He is a painter.

Cultural Attaché of the Republic of Poland (2006)

Jacek Biegała, 1-szy sekretarz Ambasady RP, 2006

This year Poland was invited as a special guest of Huntenkunst. Nine young artists who represent different trends in modern Polish art will exhibit their work at this international event.

Huntenkunst is a meeting place for artists and public from various countries. They are attracted by the idea behind it; making each other’s acquaintance, showing interest in each other’s artistic visions. Huntenkunst 2006 bears a rather provocative title: The Poles are coming.

For the Netherlands, Poland has always been near, both geographically and historically. The flourishing trade relations between both countries in the 16th and 17th century stimulated the interest in the arts.

Dutch influence is clearly visible in Polish art, architecture and urban development. There are also Dutch traces to be found in the national culture of some regions; a heritage of the Dutch religious refugees who took up residence in Poland. In the 20th century, however, the Iron Curtain, which divided Europe for decades, made Poland a far-away country in the eyes of the Dutch. At that time culture was a compensation for Polish society. This isolation however, also aroused foreign interest in Polish art and culture.

Magdalena Abakanowicz, Andrzej Pągowski, Jerzy Duda-Gracz and Henryk Tomaszewski have become internationally well-known artists. Nowadays Europe is not divided anymore, although Poland still ‘feels’ remote.

Unknown, unloved, as the saying goes, but Huntenkunst allows us to meet each other and to show Poland in its present colours.

Jacek Biegała

Cultural Attaché of the Republic of Poland in the Netherlands.

Comment Pieter: Thank god the political climate in the Netherlands has changed quite recently, the power of the PVV has been broken, and now a sort of more moderate centrist coalition formation is on the way. This will improve the ties between the Netherlands and Poland. Huntenkunst shows that Polish art and thus culture is present in the Netherlands. In august Pjotr will be back with an exhibition at the Huntenkunst gallery, Gallerie bij de Boeken (Gallery next to the books). Huntenkunst is made possible and organised by this gallery.

Piotr Gardecki will be back in the Netherlands in August with an exhibion in the Eastern part of the Netherlands at gallerie bij de boeken (Gallery next to the books) in the Dru-culture Factory in the small town Ulft in the Achterhoek area of the province Gelderland.

His exhibition will last from august the 20th until September 29 2012.

This is not a piece of work that will be shown in the gallery, but an example of Pjotrs work.

His drawings which will be shown in Ulft will be less scarry. They will be graphical forms of the Rhine river landscape around Arnhem with elements of the John Frost Bridge (famous for Market Garden, because the bridge was the scene of heavy fighting between British forces and German Wehrmacht and Waffen SS in September 1944 during Market Garden: "Known from the movie A Bridge to Far"), and some Post-Industrial elements in the landscape, like concrete and metal constructions that are left in the landscape.
