The exhibition Entropy of Art began in Poland and is designed to promote international art exchange among artists
with different cultural backgrounds. The project will provide the basis to create global collaborations in art, bringing
people closer together and promoting cultural exchanges. From this international group of artists, each artist will be
displaying his or her own artworks as the exhibit travels the world representing each artist own country.
Participants will take part in the demonstration of artistic achievements in contemporary painting, printmaking,
drawing, as well as their own techniques on paper. The results of this project will be the exchange of artistic
experiences, the learning of cultural aspects of fine art, and creativity in the Far East, South, Central and North
America as well as Europe. Artwork will be displayed in several major galleries in the USA, Australia and Poland.
A full colored catalogue will accompany these exhibitions. The project will established a biennale presentation,
and it will grow with the addition of new artists and countries in the future.

Entropy is a term used to define aspects of thermodynamics, inquiry, and chaos theory.
The common understanding of the word refers to the growing internal disorder of organized
systems. This disorder and unpredictability not only affect the microcosms of physics or
mathematics but also our everyday reality. In entropy we can notice the desire to disrupt the
stability of order, to break the rules, and the associated feeling of uncertainty. In this sense
entropy becomes the synonym of change, leading to unpredictable results. This is the reason
why entropy has a lot in common with art.
Entropy, after all, is nothing but the constant departure from schemes, the abandonment
of conventions, the search for originality, the destruction of stereotypes, and ageless revolt.
Yet, when defined as the vocabulary of thermodynamics or communication theory, entropy
also means ‘expansion’. Every piece of art displayed in a gallery and every future exhibit
ultimately has the same task: The spread of aesthetic values and the expansion of art’s domain
on the new aspects of reality. In this way artistic creativity annexes the unknown territory of
existence and through its presence fills the world with a new understanding of reality.
The above translations and interpretations of the word entropy are reflected in the exhibit
Entropy of Art. This exhibit features the work of many artists from many different parts of the
world. Some of the artists come from Poland, some from Australia, South Korea, Europe, and
the U.S. Besides their origin (most are of Polish heritage), these artists are unified by a shared
vision of a group exposition, as well as by medium. All works in the show were done on paper.
Paper as a medium carries with it a rich history and many different connotations. It is a
common material, which in a sense defines its esthetic value. It also has a certain characteristic
that affects its specific perception. This characteristic is intimacy. Because of the choice of
paper as a medium, the art displayed on it becomes a part of our reality and widens the
borders of its own presence through entropy.
The idea for the show came from conversations between artists, who decided that they
would like to display their work together in a “show”. The idea then expanded that this will not
be a single event, but rather, a growing project in which participating artists will expand the
concept of “the show” by successively adding elements (new artists, new work) and thereby
changing and varying it as it travels. Thus, fulfilling its purpose, the Entropy of Art will stand
for the freedom of artistic expression, the spread of aesthetic values and the expansion of art’s
domain on the reality.
