We would like to invite you to the first part of the „Art Symphony” project carried out by Negatyw Gallery. It will be made up of various exhibitions and art events related to the fact that Katowice was named the “City of Music” by UNESCO.

On Friday, February 26, at 7pm, we are starting with the „Jazz Zone” exhibition of jazz-inspired posters. They will be displayed at level +2 of Galeria Katowicka, in the HIGHER LEVEL PROJECT zone occupied by Negatyw Gallery.

The exhibition, which will be available for the mall’s guests for a month a half, includes works from Poland, Argentina, Belarus, the Czech Republic, Ecuador, Greece, Iran, South Korea, Mexico, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia and Italy.

The posters embody everything there is to find in jazz music – tension and relaxation, discipline and freedom, harmony and contrast, sound and silence. Colors, structures and means of expression might change but at the same time we can see harmonious links between subsequent works. Basically, this is like the jam session of posters.

The “Jazz Zone” was created as a result of cooperation between Negatyw Gallery and the Department of Graphic Design at the Institute of Art at the Art Faculty of the University of Silesia. The exhibition is accompanied by jazz soundtrack prepared by the artist known as 7w5.

The “Art Symphony” project, the most recent venture of Negatyw Gallery, which makes use of visual arts and involves most talented young artists, is supposed to show the region’s musical capacity in a creative way.
