Spiel 05 > Points of No Return
Wincenty Dunikowski-Duniko
Characteristic for Wincenty Dunikowski-Duniko's work is his interdisciplinary activity, that may be devided into two areas: the first connected with the problem of the developement of form, the other connected with the idea of art. His cycles of works are interrelated in time and in the methods of their realisation; they are never closed.
Point of No Return is a term that describes all the moments in life which are irrefutable; those are in private life - anniversaries, in research - the invention of electricity, in politics - a change of systems, in art - works like "Black Square on White Ground" by Malewicz or Duchamp's Ready Made. But Point of No Return is at the same time an abstract term - nobody has yet seen a "point of no return". Therefore the series are titled with a different color than in reality. A "still life" seems to be its interpretation in terms of painting - its a new reality, not the same. Points of No Return is a game between perception and reality, truth and deception, between reservations and freedom.
