This year’s 4th Parallax Forum aims to respond to the context of working within a post-COVID world by embracing the potential for dialogue across borders, both online and, restrictions permitting, in the real world.
In 2020 artists and institutions have been rapidly adapting to the shifting circumstances within which we are living and working. The Adam Mickiewicz Institute, the Fine Arts Academy in Katowice as part of Parallax network, supported by the Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art, invite students, artists and cultural practitioners to a series of online seminars about the potential of artists’ residencies in a world where many aspects of our lives and human interactions have become increasingly complicated.

The seminars will act as a springboard from which cross-institution groups of students will be invited to respond to the themes. Groups will collaborate to generate presentations in the form of workshops, artworks or performances that will feature at the 4th Parallax forum, in spring 2021, please contact your joint lead coordinators regarding timetable, coordination and production issues.
