The last weekend in Krakow was an intense time of discussions, lectures, openings and workshops that were a part of Catch-up Revolution project. Hosting several guests from Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia we have managed to touch most important issues connected with the main subject of the workshops - last decade of 20th century. The key word was Catch-up Revolution and led us to further conclusion about how our generation perceive Nineties.
Building map of contexts based on terms used in history and cultural studies we have been trying to develop some new approach toward the time after transformation in former eastern bloc. The workshops started with two lectures. One provided by duo Aneta Rostkowska and Kuba Woynarowski was concerning a curatorial concept of Gonzo Curating that is based on thorough differences in how we perceive act of curating through story telling.

Catch-Up Revolution is a term used by Jurgen Habermas to explain changes in post-communistic countries in the last decade of 20th century. On this blog you will find information regarding project under the same title I'm running through 2015. It's mainly based on research, conference and exhibition that all together creates an interactive platform for artists and curators from Poland, Slovakia and Czech Republic.
