	Exhibition title: Bird’s Eye View. The 23. AAmA International Exhibition Asian & African & Med. & Europe & Americas International Art. Exhibition Description: “Bird’s-Eye View” represents a perspective from above, where borders and divisions disappear. From this vantage point, it becomes clear that despite their differences, artists from around the world express similar emotions and experiences. It is a vision of a shared space in which diversity merges into a unified whole. The title also emphasizes the freedom inherent in art, which can freely cross boundaries and become a universal language. The joint exhibition of invited artists constitutes a unique encounter of multiple sensitivities, experiences, and traditions, woven into a complex narrative of contemporary art. The creators, coming from various parts of Europe and the world – from Poland, Italy, France, and the Netherlands to Japan, Korea, and China – represent different cultural and academic environments, which is clearly reflected in their artistic approaches. Diversity manifests itself both in the themes explored and in the ways they are interpreted. Some artists focus on reflections on nature and transience, while others explore issues of identity, memory, or the relationship between humans and the contemporary technological world. Social and existential themes also emerge, as well as purely formal explorations concerned with image structure, rhythm, and materiality. A significant aspect of this exhibition is its technical richness. Artists employ both classical printmaking techniques, such as etching, lithography, and woodcut, and experimental approaches, combining traditional methods with new digital and painting media. The exhibition highlights not only the continuation of centuries-old traditions but also their dynamic development and adaptability in a changing world. In the works, one can observe traces of classical European schools alongside inspirations drawn from Far Eastern aesthetics and contemporary international trends. This diversity does not lead to fragmentation; on the contrary, it fosters dialogue in which difference becomes a value. All participants share a common passion for art and the creative process. The exhibition is not only a survey of individual works but also a testament to the vitality of art as a field that, despite cultural and formal differences, can unite artists around shared values and creative passion.

The exhibition is a summary of the creative explorations of the young generation of painters, whose works demonstrate a high artistic and technical level, as well as a sensitivity to current phenomena and transformations in contemporary reality. The Student Painting Triennial is a cyclical competition organized by the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Rzeszów, under the patronage of the local government.

	Exhibition title: Wyraj - ZIEMOWIT JARECKI Description: There are fragments of reality that attempt to deviate from the norm, manifesting their arrogance in the very fact of existing in space. Like unwanted memories, they materialize in our heads. It is from these fractures, deviations, and shifts that the "Wyraj" project arises. I wanted to create an independent space of transformation—a place where everything finds its new place and is given the opportunity to exist in new realities. I wanted to reshape what remained of ancient Slavic identity—its rituals, symbols, and forgotten artifacts—to give it new life and transform forgotten symbols into modern forms—to allow them to speak in a new language. "Wyraj" is a fusion of what has passed and what is coming—a meeting of myth and code, ritual and interaction, spirituality and the digital.
