As part of the 57th edition of the Jazz on the Odra festival, we invite you to a guest exhibition presenting the works of the winners of the 2nd We Want Jazz International Posters Competition. The theme of this year’s edition was the influence of Polish composers (or composers with Polish roots) on world jazz. The works refer to the works of Bronisław Kaper, Henryk Wars and Victor Young, whose songs such as Green Dolphin Street or Invitation have permanently entered the canon of jazz standards. The winners of the competition were selected from among 450 works submitted by artists from 31 countries.
The winners whose posters will be presented at the exhibition:
JULIA LIPIŃSKA (Poland)
DARIA GLIŃSKA (Poland)
TOMASZ STELMASKI (Poland)
NATALIA VOLPE (Argentina)
MAJA ŻURAWIECKA (Poland)
ERICK GINARD (Cuba)
KAI HUANG (China)
EUGENIUS KRISNA (Indonesia)
ZOFIA KLAJS (Poland)
PATRICIA FERNÁNDEZ (Cuba)
SZYMON SZYMANKIEWICZ (Poland)
The exhibition will run from 13 to 19 September. The works will be displayed in the Wroclavia shopping centre (ul. Sucha 1, Wrocław), a partner of this year’s Jazz on the Odra festival.
The competition is organized by the EuroJAZZ Foundation for the Popularization of Jazz Music
