About ArtBoom
ArtBoom is the largest festival presenting modern art in Krakow – both Polish and foreign. The organizers’ intention is to create a cyclical event, which will enable steady contact with the most interesting phenomena in the latest art. The uniqueness of the festival also stems from the fact that some of the pieces presented during the festival will become a part of the Krakow National Museum’s collection, while others will permanently remain in the city’s public areas.
The main subject of the first edition of the ArtBoom Festival is Krakow itself. Each artist tackles problems connected with the urban tissue and city history differently; almost all the pieces are placed in public areas, interacting with it and stimulating the passers-by to reflect on the reality around them.

Die Videoarbeit von Brad Downey ist 2008 in Paris entstanden. Der Künstler läuft
des Nächtens an zahllosen Geschäften vorbei. Er springt dabei von Bild zu Bild
und jedes Mal, wenn er landet, geht ohne erkennbaren Zusammenhang die
Leuchtreklame eines weiteren Geschäfts aus. Auf diese Weise bewegt er sich
unaufhörlich durch die Stadt und hinterlässt eine künstlerische Spur der Dunkelheit.
So entsteht eine nicht (be-)greifbare, immaterielle Skulptur.

Dear Brad Downey Staff, 2 days ago, a Brontosaurus bit my friend in the leg and now he is in the hospital. His condition is very serious. The doctors say the only way he will be cured is if Mr. Downey sends him some swag (e.g., stickers). Stickers really help because he adorns his Mac PowerPC with them and the glowing apple symbol and the stickers that surround it have a profound healing power. Please send them to this address, I will try to get them to him promptly so he may be healed of his Brontosaurus bite:
Regards, Peter Yoon
60-foot penis painted on roof
March 25, 2009 – 8:09 pm
An 18-year-old has secretly painted a 60ft drawing of a phallus on the roof of his parents’ £1million mansion in Berkshire. It was there for a year before his parents found out. They say he’ll have to scrub it off when he gets back from travelling.
