The Bay Area was an exhibition of video works that explored the current Bay Area art scene, providing Polish audiences with exposure to representative works from the region. Curated by MFA candidate Piotr Bujak, and sited at the Gallery of the Department of Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, The Bay Area used video installations and video screenings to explore the context and meaning of Bay Area creative production. In collaboration with the gallery directors, renowned Polish artists Witold Stelmachniewicz and Grzegorz Sztwiertnia, Bujak brought to light methods of working and thinking that remain unique to the Bay Area.
