Coming out of the Shipyard, this time the artist concentrates on its &bdquo;outer&rdquo; part, located by the historical Gate no. 2 and the Solidarity Square. Both places are very important from the historical, political and social perspective not only for Gda\u0144sk citizens, but also for the Polish people in general. The whole area in question belongs to the common public space which both every day and on special occasions is occupied by different social groups identifying with it. For many years this very space has functioned as a sort of&nbsp;&nbsp;mirror of the Shipyard &#8211; fenced and inaccessible for the public. The moment of erecting the European Solidarity Centre was really the turning point which removed the physical barriers between the Square and the Shipyard, unveiling its new face.<br \/> &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The exhibition is composed of photo and video materials made within 2008-2014.
