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. Applications for the contest 
may be works created on paper with the use of 
traditional drawing tools as well as proposals 
prepared specially for the interiors of the 
Arttrakt Gallery and Geppert's Apartment executed 
in other techniques, which represent a widely 
understood 'drawing-oriented thinking'.
