Mare Nostrum

“360 Minutes Art Volume 4 Exhibition” (SA-PO), 2015, Gdansk, Poland

What is “360 minute art” exhibition?

The artists present their works for exactly 360 minutes.


The artworks are displayed only within this strictly defined time frame - neither before nor after the exhibition. A large red digital clock marks the passing minutes. When it reaches zero, all artworks that have not been sold are taken down and burned in a fire in the yard. Everyone who gathers during these 360 minutes shares a unique, unrepeatable experience.

The art of “Mare Nostrum”

“Mare Nostrum” is a triptych of original artworks created by artists Igor Posavec and Sven Sauer (SA-PO). This series was created exclusively for the 360 Minutes of Art exhibition in Gdańsk, Poland. Its multidimensional nature is both material and symbolic: we gaze into deep waters that simultaneously reflect and conceal the cruel surfaces of reality.
Each image is composed on multi-layered glass panels, evoking a tangible sense of depth and parallax.
