KRZYSZTOF WODICZKO : THE ART OF UN-WAR a film by Maria Niro
The Art of Un-War documentary chronicles the life and political work of the internationally acclaimed artist Krzysztof Wodiczko. A pioneer of large scale projection art, Wodiczko's lifelong investigation of the relationship of war and trauma is intimately explored through his public projections and urban art interventions created over the past fifty years. Wodiczko's unique projections onto monuments and facades challenge our complacency towards war, xenophobia and displacement. Filmed with unprecedented access, this rare glimpse into the artist’s world stands as a permanent document of his thought-provoking and inspiring work.
Narrated by Krzysztof Wodiczko, and in conversations with Wodiczko's partner artist Ewa Harabasz, artist / activist Dread Scott, artist / writer/ activist Gregory Sholette, media artist Ani Liu, art historian Rosalyn Deutsche , curator Bozena Czubak of Fundicia Profile, curator Micaela Martegani of More Art, and Mary Sabatino of Galerie Lelong & Co. Through colleagues and fellow artists activists, we come to know Wodiczko as an empathetic media artist with a deep commitment to exposing the travesties of war and its aftermath.
