Inspiring Humanity

A visual adventure depicting the diversity of life experience and perceptions of humanity that inspires artists in 21st century Poland. Many of the paintings and sculpture have been exhibited internationally but not previously shown in the UK.

The exhibition is the result of co-operation with contemporary artists and leading galleries from five major cities. The artists are all based in Poland except for Edinburgh resident and exhibition co-organiser Arek Kozak who recently featured on the front page of the Edinburgh Evening News after transforming burnt out cars into artworks.

The Maxwell Mural ARTSPACE is located in the former Craigmillar School which, thanks to the foresight and efforts of local people, was protected to preserve the “Childrens Games and Amusements” mural painted by Scottish artist John Maxwell in 1935. The mural, which is 30ft x 15ft, both compliments and contrasts with the Inspiring Humanity collection and is open to the public during the exhibition.
