Sztuką jest to, co inni uznają za sztukę! Czy możemy być inni?

Art is what the artworld says it is. Can we be members of the artworld?

Dear folders,

We would like to invite you to the Polish origami convention. The 14th Outdoor Origami Meeting (the 14th Polish Origami Convention aka Plener Origami) will be held June 5th-7th (with pre-folding session June 4th evening) in Krakow this year. The convention place is located in the center of Krakow, but still with some outdoor activities available. We hope such arrangement will attract you to Krakow and we will host you end of June.

Daniel Chang is our special guest. We enjoy his unique creations of hybrid creatures and his style of teaching origami.

Hybrid is leading topic of our convention. So we are awaiting hybrid models. It may be a hybrid animal like giraffoctopus, hybrid car, model with a hybrid name (like television - part Greek and part Latin). modular with hybrid joining system or a cube with biplane wings. You may think about a tessellation based on a hybrid grid or artwork made of hybrid materials. We especially appreciate hybrid geometric models.

We plan to print a convention book this year too. Would you be so kind to send us a diagram of one of your creations related in some way to the leading theme, to be printed in the convention book. The book will be printed in ca. 150 copies and it will be sold to convention participants (at special low price) and later (if any copies left unsold). All proceeds from sale will cover the convention organization cost. Every author will receive a free copy of the convention book. Please send your diagram till 15th of April to the editor of the convention book Halina (Haligami) Rosciszewska-Narloch Ten adres pocztowy jest chroniony przed spamowaniem.
