Outsiders 2021–2025

Published August 28, 2025

This unique album was published in a limited run of 500 copies by Layup Galery – the result of a five-year process behind the creation of the Outsiders exhibition, captured in a carefully designed publication. The visual concept was developed by Olek Modzelewski, with editorial work by Cezary Hunkiewicz. The album features photographs of all artworks by invited artists, documentation of the SKM train entering the hall, in-depth interviews, and first-time published materials. Each copy is hand-numbered, making it not only a publication but also a collectible object.

Layup Galery is an exhibition space dedicated to contemporary urban art, located on the post-shipyard grounds of Gdańsk. Established in 2015, it was one of the first alternative cultural institutions to emerge in this post-industrial area. Housed in the giant historic Hall 94b, Layup presents a unique gallery focused on artists rooted in the graffiti scene. The collection includes over 50 works by internationally recognized artists such as Moses & Taps™, Rage, Sabe, Rocco and His Brothers, Sebas Velasco, Sainer, Martí Sawe, Karso, Finer, M-City, Krik, and Sicoer, as well as a fully preserved 24-ton EN71 048 SKM train car.

The book interior (336 pages + a 24-page insert printed with silver spot color) was printed on Arctic Volume White 115 g/m² and Munken Print White 115 g/m² by Arctic Paper. The Swiss-bound hardcover was wrapped in Natural Art Silk Eggshell White paper, with blind embossing on the front and spine.
