description: Photographic documentation of Jerzy Bereś’s manifestation "Artist’s Monument" (25.08.1978), taken on the road from Warcino to Kępice and on the train station square in Kępice during the 11th National Youth Plein Air Miastko ’78: Plein Air of Questions – Plein Air of Answers. Train station square in Kępice. The artist is wearing a tunic with the inscription "artist’s spirit" made of a flag. He is standing with a glass in his hand. On a canvas lying on the ground next to him with the inscription "contact of the artist with the audience" there is an empty bottle and filled glasses. A man is reaching for one of them. In the back there is a circle of imprinted traces and a tree trunk on which hip guards lie. Smoke rises above them. A crowd of random viewers, including many children, is watching the situation.
