Tomorrow Begins Today is a project initiated by Dariusz Fodczuk in 2021, which has been implemented from the very beginning in cooperation with Shahar Marcus, an Israeli artist working on a daily basis at the Art Department of Ha’Kibbutzim College in Tel Aviv.
This year's third edition of the project will feature outstanding artists and a performance artist from art universities in Liberec (Czech Republic), Tel Aviv (Israel) and Polish art schools in Poznań and Szczecin: Blanka Kirchner, Shahar Marcus, Janusz Bałdyga and Dariusz Fodczuk. Students from the studios run by the aforementioned artists have been invited to participate in the festival presentations.

Dariusz Fodczuk, project curator:
Tomorrow Begins Today, using the artistic and didactic experiences of the creators involved in the project, has the ambition to become a platform for reflection on shaping the methods and ways of teaching performance art. Outstanding performance artists with significant didactic achievements and students selected (nominated) by them are invited to the project. The intention of the project creators is to compile statements in the language of performance art, referring to ideas about the future and their impact on the present, perceived from the perspective of different artistic practices in the context of dramatic ecological, geopolitical and cultural changes and threats.
