Skyscape/Escape - Chris Dobrowolski

Date: 16 - 25 March 2010
Time: Monday to Friday, 10.00 - 17.00

In an attempt to fulfil his Inner Need and to articulate the frustrations and challenges of his art education (in Hull) and the art world (in general), Chris Dobrowolski has built a series of extraordinary vehicles in which to escape from it all.

His journeys have become a series of rites of passage and the beginning of countless stories he has re-told all over the world. The most infamous of his escape attempts, in an aeroplane made out of tea-chests and newspaper, was captured in the exhibit Skyscape/Escape.

Chris' also gave his stories as part of a series of talks at Ruskin Gallery, as well as a talk on creativity, innovation and enterprise entitled "Reach for The Skies", which took place at the gallery on Thursday 25 March 2010.
