For the 75th anniversary of the creation of the Neoplastic Room, we have attempted to reconstruct the historical layout of the Modern Art Gallery as it might have looked like during its inauguration in 1948. The basis for this was an idea of presenting the collection of art described and published by Marian Minich in his text "For a New Organization of Art Museums" (1965). It was a concept very close to Władsyław Strzemiński’s "Theory of Vision" (1958), wherein the general aim was to study the form of artworks.
This exhibition presents the winners of the Katarzyna Kobro Award, a major distinction that the arts community has given the most outstanding artists for twenty years.
EmoPolis is Agata Ingarden's first museum exhibition to be held in Poland. Presented here is the fragment of an ongoing project where the central role is played by infrastructural pieces which have been designed to manage energy emitted by emotional states. To this end, the exhibition combines two monumental works - Rescue Dummies and Picnic at Sunset.
Aura Rosenberg explores the inner lives and desiresof monuments from different epochs. The space between them is the space between us.
