Open Call / Think Tank lab Triennial, the International Festival of Contemporary Drawing is an open competition addressed at artists living in Poland or abroad. The contest motto and theme is A DRAWING AS AN OBJECT CONTAINING KNOWLEDGE. The aim is to present various forms of acts of drawing and actions related to drawing. It is a competition for realization dedicated to the Arttrakt Gallery and Geppert's Apartment in Wroclaw. We want to present valuable and innovative actions in the discipline of drawing that will allow us to describe the present state of artistic quest in this area of creation. The idea of the section of the Open Call is to support and promote the artists for whom drawing is one of the most important means of expression, with a special attention paid to young artists. However, we encourage all the artists active in the field of visual arts and interested in the idea of the contest to participate in this competition.

We expect various proposals regarding form, still they shall refer to the concept included in the motto. This year the Drawing Triennale focuses on several issues. The concept of space and drawing understood as a graph of space are important issues. The majority of works which the audience of the festival will be able to see, especially in the premises of the Museum of Architecture and the Ossolinskis National Institute were created for the purpose of the Triennale. These are site specific projects.
