The exhibition traces Ciechanowska\u2019s rich and versatile creative output in the context of her vicissitudes and the itinerary of her life journey as an \u00e9migr\u00e9 woman artist together with key formative influences. Having left Poland during the communist regime in 1977, Joanna came to Britain where she met her English civil engineer husband. Together they were sent to many international postings \u2013 from Iran, through Africa (including the Kingdom of Lesotho and Egypt) to Hong Kong, and post-communist Poland, where Ciechanowska was able to re-connect with her Polish roots, before settling down in Great Britain. By the 1980s Ciechanowska became a distinguished international illustrator and graphic designer, before taking on the role of POSK Gallery Director, promoting and mentoring Polish artists in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

20th September, 2pm-3pm,<\/strong> The Depiction of Migration in Contemporary UK Art. Talk by Anglo-Polish artist Ania Ruszkowski<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ania Ruszkowski is a practising artist whose work explores her Anglo-Polish heritage and migrant roots. With UK\u2019s migration being a regular part of political, social and economic discourse, Ania explores and questions how global migration is captured at a local level in contemporary British art and whether current exhibitions are representative of the richness of Britain\u2019s diverse diaspora groups? She will explore recent installations, exhibitions and artworks which have arisen as a consequence of migration, linking these to some of the challenges of representing the migrant story and identity faced by artists (including herself) today. These include the connotations of migration with refugeeism, the complexities of how to differentiate migrant culture, nationality and ethnicity, and the place of hybrid cultures within such depictions. A lively and topical presentation will leave you with more questions than you came with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Release your creativity, and create a work of art which captures your unique identity. This interactive workshop is designed for adults and teenagers, with no expectation or need to know how to draw. Complete novices and budding artists are equally welcome. Participants will explore what forms individual and group identity. Visual examples will be shared to demonstrate how art has reflected identity historically and the different approaches used; and to consider how present global migration means we are no longer defined by a single culture or nationality. Participants will then create images to reflect their local and global migrant influences. The workshop is led by Ania Ruszkowski – a qualified Learning Specialist and practising artist whose work explores her own migrant history and Anglo-Polish identity. Techniques to choose from will include drawing and\/or collage. All materials will be provided; please bring any mementoes such as photographs, books, etc to inspire you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having left Poland during the communist regime in 1977, Joanna came to Britain where she met her English civil engineer husband. Together they were sent to many international postings \u2013 from Iran, through Africa (including the Kingdom of Lesotho and Egypt) to Hong Kong, and post-communist Poland, where Ciechanowska was able to re-connect with her Polish roots, before settling down in Great Britain.

Talk by Anglo-Polish artist Ania Ruszkowski\nAnia Ruszkowski is a practising artist whose work explores her Anglo-Polish heritage and migrant roots. With UK\u2019s migration being a regular part of political, social and economic discourse, Ania explores and questions how global migration is captured at a local level in contemporary British art and whether current exhibitions are representative of the richness of Britain\u2019s diverse diaspora groups? She will explore recent installations, exhibitions and artworks which have arisen as a consequence of migration, linking these to some of the challenges of representing the migrant story and identity faced by artists (including herself) today. These include the connotations of migration with refugeeism, the complexities of how to differentiate migrant culture, nationality and ethnicity, and the place of hybrid cultures within such depictions. A lively and topical presentation will leave you with more questions than you came with.\nFree, Register via Eventbrite:\nThe Depiction of Migration in Contemporary UK Art. Talk by Ania Ruszkowski Tickets, Fri, Sep 20, 2024 at 2:00 PM | Eventbrite\n21st September, 11am & 2:30pm, Art Workshop: An Exploration of Art and Identity led by Ania Ruszkowski\nRelease your creativity, and create a work of art which captures your unique identity. This interactive workshop is designed for adults and teenagers, with no expectation or need to know how to draw. Complete novices and budding artists are equally welcome. Participants will explore what forms individual and group identity. Visual examples will be shared to demonstrate how art has reflected identity historically and the different approaches used; and to consider how present global migration means we are no longer defined by a single culture or nationality. Participants will then create images to reflect their local and global migrant influences. The workshop is led by Ania Ruszkowski - a qualified Learning Specialist and practising artist whose work explores her own migrant history and Anglo-Polish identity. Techniques to choose from will include drawing and\/or collage. All materials will be provided; please bring any mementoes such as photographs, books, etc to inspire you.\nFree, Register via Eventbrite:\nArt Workshop: An Exploration of Art and Identity led by Ania Ruszkowski Tickets, Multiple Dates | Eventbrite"},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/2024\/09\/08\/3rd-anglo-polish-cultural-exchange-festival\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-08-155654.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-08-155654.png","width":873,"height":436},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/2024\/09\/08\/3rd-anglo-polish-cultural-exchange-festival\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"3rd Anglo-Polish Cultural Exchange Festival"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#website","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/","name":"Instytut Polski w Londynie","description":"Instytuty Polskie","potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"pl-PL"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#\/schema\/person\/650660f82290e905505348ef8ca79a33","name":"konopkab","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/fb1006bc5b4ae26fa605cdf675d5e97c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/fb1006bc5b4ae26fa605cdf675d5e97c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"konopkab"},"url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/author\/konopkab\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8551","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8551"}],"version-history":[{"count":31,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8551\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8723,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8551\/revisions\/8723"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8551"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8551"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8551"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
