However, apart from our experiences of text in art, each of us also has our own experience of text in everyday life. When we walk down the street, we read all the time, constantly creating collages made by fragments of words and sentences. Furthermore, the nature of our thoughts is textual.

Inspired by these two sources - the discourse of art and everyday life - we can find material for new artistic activities based on text.

As part of the 4th Art & Documentation Festival, we plan to open the Andrzej Pierzgalski Gallery, named after the legendary founder of the A4 Gallery in Łód_ in the 70s.

This will be organised in the form of a presentation of works in A4 format, attached to the Art and Documentation journal. It may consist of artists' texts, quotations and artists' statements, mini-essays, registrations of conversations, handwritten notes, etc. These may take various graphic and typographic forms.

Please send your proposal as an already prepared textual or graphic work in A4 format, or in the form of an electronic file. All submitted work should be black and white. Colour can be used if it is in a close relationship with the text.

Works will be evaluated by the Festival's Organising Committee.

The first publication of the gallery's works will be in the 6th issue of the Art and Documentation journal published on the occasion of the opening of the festival.

Please, send your proposals to the Art and Documentation journal's office:
ul.Wschodnia 29/3
