On the 24th of October the international jury chose Łukasz Jastrubczak as the most interesting young Polish artist of the last two years. The winner was awarded with 15,000 euros.
The second prize – a three month residency in Villa Romana in Florence was granted to Karolina Breguła.
Jury verdict: “The jury of the sixth edition of Views has decided, on account of a daring experimentation, a non-instrumental, independent approach to current technologies, a freedom in engaging with dominant discourses, an ephemerality, sensitivity, and ability to work with transpositions of perception and marginal phenomena, to award the first prize to Łukasz Jastrubczak. In view of her ability to speak of the context and specifics of place, the jury awards the prize of a residence in the Villa Romana to Karolina Bregula.”
Artists nominated to the “Views 2013” were: Tymek Borowski, Piotr Bosacki, Karolina Breguła, Łukasz Jastrubczak and Agnieszka Polska.
