Can the beauty relax you? Do over-aesthetised works influence spectator’s feeling of bliss? Is it possible to have a wallow in the artistic creation? …Yes, yes, YES!!! Thanks to the creative help of his friends – Magda Szubielska and Rafael Rosłoń – the visual torturer Radek Bułtowicz realised his work called Dolce far niente. The artistic outdoor installation owes its shape to the models. Their provocative poses, ambiguous smiles, gestures and outfits determined over the kittenish character of Dolce far niente realisation. Bu³towicz's work is an attempt to prove the thesis that blissful laziness is beautiful, as well as it is glamour.
