"Obscure-Jerzy Goliszewski"


SPACES - Cleveland, 2220 Superior Via., Cleveland, OH 44113
Jerzy Goliszewski is interested in permeability or the lack thereof. There are typically elements in his work that invite the viewer into and through a surface or the viewer is reflected or repelled by the surface. His first project is visible from outside SPACES. The larger front windows have been skinned in a vinyl lattice that mimics front porch lattice. This helps obscure the view of the gallery’s interior from those standing on the street. Inside the space, light streams in and viewers get a mildly fettered view of the street as if they had scampered beneath a porch. I personally liked visiting SPACES this semester because this was by far one of the most interestingdisplays of Obscure artwork that I have ever seen. Jerzy did an excellant job creating a sense of abstract obcurity through the use of lattices. It was mixed media taken to the next level.
