Jakub Woynarowski

Jakub Woynarowski is an artist, designer, and independent curator who lives and works in Kraków, Poland. He is a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, where he currently teaches at the Narrative Drawing Studio and conducts a course on Visual Narration. Recently, he collaborated with the Institute of Architecture as author of the art concept for the Polish Pavilion at the 14th Biennale of Architecture in Venice (2014).

Together with Aneta Rostkowska he runs a fictitious institution of contemporary art, CCA Wawel Castle, as an expression of "gonzo curating", a performative curatorial practice inspired by gonzo journalism, which seeks to challenge art institutions and established exhibition formats.
  His practice studies the feasibility of applying various forms of visual narration as an instrument of theoretical reflection, and takes up themes associated with the "archeology of the avant-garde", pointing out similarities between ancient works of art and artistic achievements of the 20th century.

Woynarowski seeks inspiration in conspiracy theories and the iconography of arcane knowledge systems – alchemy and freemasonry, and more specifically, in the alphabetical characters and themes assigned to them. The slight interference into established connotations allows for the playful recombination of the detached components into one unit.
