Katarzyna Kozyra, one of Poland’s most well-known artists – a sculptor, photographer, performance artist, filmmaker, and video installation artist – a key figure in Polish critical art of the 1990s, has for the first time turned her gaze to the theatre.
“On my path as an artist I have grappled with various forms of expression, and now it’s time for the theatre. It has turned out to be an interesting field for all my activities so far. Gathered together, they generate something new,” says this artist, whose work has appeared at the leading exhibitions, in galleries and museums all around the world.
A point of departure for Katarzyna Kozyra’s play will be the reference to her famous project called Looking for Jesus, which examined “Jerusalem Syndrome.” This time, the artist has decided to investigate the legal and cultural aspects of this most important of trials, which determined the course of history thereafter.
