Planet Of Darkness And Other Fantastic Stories
Exhibition prints design
An interactive exhibition of paintings, inspired by the works of Stanisław Lem, on the occasion of the establishment of the year 2021 to be The Year of Lem by the Parliament of the Republic of Poland.

The project combines literature and painting into a coherent audio-visual experience.
The exhibition consists of 20 paintings, made in the acrylic on canvas technique. Each painting has a QR code placed on its description plate. After scanning the code, an audio file is played on the receiver’s device from the server of the Tischner European University in Cracow – a short drabble prose form, related to the painting.
The catalogue also contains all QR codes from the exhibition and additional codes for all recordings as one audiobook.
In this way, every visitor to the exhibition can have a full experience with both the paintings and the audio files not only during, but after the exhibition as well. The audio material will be available for download indefinitely.
The author of the paintings and the originator of the project is Simeon Genew.
The author of the text is Rafał Cywicki.
Read by Jan Wawrzyniec Tuźnik.
