British artist Martin Creed creates objects, installations in public space, texts and musical compositions. In his works he uses materials common to everyday life, including medical tape, A4 sheets of paper, balloons filled with air, and bits of wall putty. Martin Creed is a winner of the prestigious Turner Prize, which he received in 2002. He declares that his work is an expression of interest in "nothing in particular."
Creed's visual works are strictly linked to his music. His exhibition at the CCA was preceded by a concert featuring the artist and his band at Warsaw's Jazzgot Club midway through February of this year.
Exhibition organized in co-operation with The British Council.

The exhibition named Idea Leonardo da Vinci. Genius and His Machines will present a variety of the master's achievements in differed branches of science, including human anatomy, architecture, mechanics, hydrodynamics, aerodynamics.
Preparing the exhibition took Italian scholars and archivists several years. Leonardo's drawings and sketches, collected in the famous Codices, served as blueprints for building a few dozen models of machines and devices invented by the master. The models were created by qualified craftsmen supervised by the scholars, and they were made using the tools, materials, and techniques available in the Renaissance.
Along with the machines, the exhibit will showcase Leonardo's studies of human anatomy,
illustrated with the master's pictures; and models of his architectural designs. Additionally, during the exhibition a semi-documentary about Leonardo's life will be shown in a separate room. Special computer programs at several computer stations will enable setting Leonardo's devices in
motion.
