synopsis

Performance Opera Transferred [Opera przeniesiona] was a painting action that took place on the stage of Wrocław Contemporary Theater. A video camera by mediating and amplifying the expression of the pictorial gesture, created sequences of variants of large—size abstract images painted by the artist live in the presence of the audience. The artist was accompanied by the musicians, Sylvie Lorin, Piotr Gucia, Igor McRams and Christophe Leduc, that were involved in creation of the live aspect of the action.

Twardowski was putting numerous layers at colourful paint on several screen—like translucent canvases. Camera mounted on a backpack carried by the artist, traced his movements and gestures, as well as their results — flowing trails and blots of paint gradually covering the transparent screens.

Place and date of recording: 2nd International Sound Basis Visual Art Festival WRO 91, Wrocław, December 1991

artist's bio
Lech Twardowski (PL), b. 1952, is a painter and a performer. Creator of environmental painting installations and initiator of happenings and interventions in public spaces. He also employs electronic media. In his practice, he consequently broadens the terrain of painting by testing the possibilities of the medium in search for the truth and energy of the creative gesture and its reception. With his works, he often creates spaces of tension between the solid and ephemeral, between the whole and its single constituing elements.
