Statement
Most of Łukasiewicz’s actions were consider as a form of dialogue and interactive game where is no winners or loosers. At the same time all of his present actions are shifting the borderline between a notions of an artist and publicity. The result of this thinking is to convince the publicity to be the artists; to put art in their hands; to let them decide what is and what is art not. Some can say that this kind of art is called 'happening’ others – that this is just an interactive performance – but the truth is that it is neither happening nor performance. It is also not theater. This is a pure information which is realized by people through creative activities.
