„Jerzy Ludwiński remains an inspiring figure not only to scholars in contemporary art history but also to artists. The dynamics of Ludwiński’s actions and beliefs cannot be easily described in the process of analytical reflection; they belong to the realm of conceptual ideas, right where he left them. Rather than attempting to thoroughly explicate the phenomenon of Ludwiński, this publication constitutes an extension of the exhibition Filling the Blanks, staged at the Centre of Contemporary Art Znaki Czasu in Toruń.

The compilation of essays and materials included in the catalogue provides a theoretical view on selected themes in Ludwiński’s story; it also presents subjective opinions, memories and anecdotes about the critic. Part of the publication has been given to the exhibiting artists and thus it complements the exhibition space. There are literal quotations from the exhibition, sketches, inspirations, searches and materials that came about during the working on the project. The entirety, we hope, will find its place in the process aiming to reveal — as Jerzy Ludwiński would put it — artistic facts.”
