If it's really true we've got another situation "Avdei Ter-Oganian case"
type, but now all is going on in Gdansk, Poland and the artist's crime
(probably) is offending "the moral and aestetic values" of society
"represented" by authorieties resposible for art and culture events in
town. After a few twists (up-down or in-out states in making desision),
exibition "Wystawa Malarstwa" RafaÅ?a Ewertowskiego is closed before it
was opened. Rafal Ewertowski is not going to prison yet, thanks to
officials who stopped him in the last moment and in fact nothing
happened (Avdei made his project anyway). This "Ewert Case" is the vivid
example of power of "preventing forces" in Poland and is no less
"disturbing" than Avdei Ter-Oganian prosecution in Moscow.    Now my
planned "Introduction" to exibition is changing into material to
"further re-re-re-re-discussion" about 
rights and limits of "artistic expressed freedom of concioussness" and
responsibility for his own actions.

Brief info: 
"Painting Exibition" by RafaÅ? Ewertowski is a set of natural size
"hard-erotic" paintings inspired by  
Rembrandt, Jan van Eyck and others and contains "sexually explicit
imagination".
