Black Ball Projects

Interview:
Paul Narkiewicz

Paul Narkiewicz is the recipient of Black Ball Projects’ 2023 Micro-Grant; with a career spanning seven decades. Megan Mi-Ai Lee is an interdisciplinary artist and curator who also works as the Education Manager at Greenwich House. Because of her deep and ongoing relationship with Paul Narkiewicz, she was able to not only facilitate the collection of his archival works to present in this viewing room, but also to interview him — not a small feat, since, as she says, he’s a “man of few words”.

Viewing Room: Paul Narkiewicz

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our latest viewing room featuring 2023 Black Ball Projects micro-grant recipient Paul Narkiewicz. Over the seven decades of his artistic practice, Paul has developed a distinct visual vocabulary that can be seen as a common thread between the interplay and evolution of various mediums. In 2010, he began to prolifically make intimately scaled ceramic sculptures, and began exhibiting his work again for the first time in decades, with the new works shown alongside his archival paintings and prints. We are pleased to share a broad overview of his work across his career.
