Il cuore del Mare
Michał Jackowski
The Heart of Sea
October 16 to 24
From October 16 to 24, 2024, Vik Gallery in Milan will host the exhibition of internationally renowned Polish artist sculptor Michael Jackowski, entitled “The Heart of the Sea, which after the summer exhibition of monumental artworks in Porto Rotondo Marina, Sporting Hotel and Yacht Club, to came in Milan.
The project always conceived by Circle Dynamic Luxury Magazine, now in its third consecutive year, includes the two exhibitions: the first always in Porto Rotondo and the second in the city of Milan. The collaboration with the London gallery Cris Contini Contemporary, famous for its ability to promote talented contemporary artists, has provided a way to popularize the culture of art in the north of the Sardinian territory. The exhibition reimagined for Vik Gallery Milan, presents sculptural artworks that take up the concept of human states of mind in relation to changes in the sea and express Jackowski’s unmistakable artistic language, capable of combining material power and conceptual complexity. His sculptures are distinguished by the skillful use of materials such as bronze, stainless steel, resins, and stone, through which the artist explores the tensions and harmonies between corporeal and geometric forms. Jackowski’s technique combines traditional methods of casting and modeling with contemporary processes, such as the use of 3D technologies for the preliminary design of the works. This hybrid approach allows him to maintain the precision of form while expressing the emotional power of the raw material. His attention to detail is evident in every single curve and surface, making his sculptures true “creatures of matter” capable of interacting with space in surprising ways.
da Luglio a Settembre 2024
nella promenade del marina di Porto Rotondo e presso lo Sporting Hotel Porto Rotondo
Le 5 opere dialogano con i visitatori sugli elementi della natura. Un racconto introspettivo sulle emozioni dell’animo umano.
L’esposizione di Arte Urbana ideata e organizzata da CIRCLE DYNAMIC LUXURY MAGAZINE with CRIS CONTINI CONTEMPORARY.
“Il Cuore del Mare” è il titolo dell’installazione di arte urbana dell’artista polacco Michał Jackowski protagonista dal 25 luglio a settembre 2024 della Promenade del marina di Porto Rotondo, una cornice tra le più belle ed esclusive della Sardegna.
Come nella storia dell’arte, anche Jackowski segue la tradizione della personificazione degli elementi naturali, contestualizzandoli all’ambiente marino: “Così, spiega l’artista che si definisce sia scultore sia marinaio: le labbra che soffiano gonfiando le gote diventano la “Brezza” e i capelli sparsi rappresentano i venti in “Scirocco” e “Tramontana”. Sulla costa del porto, come un faro, si erge “l’Occhio del Mare” che guarda la vita della città, mentre in direzione delle imbarcazioni che tornano verso la terraferma è rivolto un occhio chiuso a simboleggiare il “Sogno del Mare”.
Il mare per l’artista non è semplicemente una distesa d’acqua: per quanto possa essere vicino e prendere le sembianze umane, lascia allo spettatore la consapevolezza di come ne conosciamo solo frammenti, dietro i quali si celano tesori ancora da scoprire. Proprio come per gli esseri umani.
from July to September 2024
at Porto Rotondo Marina promenade and at the Sporting Hotel Porto Rotondo.
The 5 art works dialogue with visitors about the elements of nature. An introspective tale about the emotions of the human soul.
The Urban Art exhibition conceived and organized by CIRCLE DYNAMIC LUXURY MAGAZINE with CRIS CONTINI CONTEMPORARY.
“The Heart of the Sea” is the title of the urban art installation by Polish artist Michał Jackowski, protagonist from July 25 to September 2024 of the Marina Promenade in Porto Rotondo, one of the most beautiful and exclusive settings in Sardinia.
“Thus, explains the artist, who calls himself both a sculptor and sailor: the blowing lips swelling the cheeks become the “Breeze” and the scattered hair represents the winds in “Scirocco” and “Tramontana”. On the shoreline of the harbor, like a lighthouse, stands “The Eye of the Sea” that watches the life of the city, while in the direction of the boats returning to the land a closed eye is turned to symbolize the “Dream of the Sea”.
The sea for the artist is not simply an expanse of water: as close as it may be and take on human likeness, expanse of water: as close as it may be and take on human likeness, it leaves the viewer aware of how we know only fragments of it, behind which lie treasures yet to be discovered. Just as with beings.
About Michał Jackowski
Michał Jackowski è nato il 14 settembre 1978 a Białystok, in Polonia. Si è laureato presso l’Accademia di Belle Arti di Varsavia, in Polonia.
