CURRENT EXHIBITION
Presented together, Opiełka’s paintings form a pulsating archive of abstract impulses. Their mechanical appearance interacts with the surprisingly sensual movement of individual motifs. The rhythm of life becomes more important than the shape of things.

WARSAW GALLERY WEEKEND 2025
Chochołów, Sławoszyno, Chęciny, Celejów — the exhibition takes place far from art centres, and its protagonists are not artists but the titular People — residents of Polish villages and small towns. The narrative unfolds over three decades, from the 1960s to the early 1990s. During that time, independently of each other and outside the framework of official artistic policy, Edward Dwurnik and Zofia Rydet embarked on their own unique, personal journeys deep into the country.

EXHIBITIONS 2025
Jishkariani, who was born the same year that Georgia regained its independence, can indeed be brutally honest, and she does combine formalism with morality, but generational traumas are also reflected in her works. The starting material for these pieces is the decorative tapestries that were popular in the Soviet Union, which the artist deconstructs and processes by applying embroidered mottos.
EXHIBITION 2024/2025
The exhibition is titled „Globus Hystericus”. This sumptuous Latin phrase refers to a common psychosomatic disorder—simply a lump in the throat. Whether a frog in the throat or a bent treetop, every crisis has a tangible shape, and every shape has its artist. A healer.

exhibitions 2020
The presentation of ten of Edward Dwurnik’s works on paper never shown before marks the beginning of the work on an intriguing archive of the artist, in which motifs and stories known from paintings are developed, or the reverse—drawings left by the artist include ideas and emotions later expanded on in his paintings.
2020 ART FAIRS
Raster at FAIR: Slavs and Tatars, Zbigniew Rogalski, Janek Simon, Karolina Jabłońska.
EXHIBITIONS 2020
Emilia Kina focuses on the margins of depiction, of what is merely a frame for the proper view, what hides it or merely appears. Her relief compositions, painting/screens captivating in their material beauty, divert attention from the digital inflation of images and messages.
EXHIBITIONS 2020
Wąbrzeźno, an ordinary little town starting with W, down near the end of the alphabet, in a language where “w” could stand for wszędzie—anywhere, portrayed by the photographer after a decade of systemic changes up to the eve of Poland’s joining the European Union, became a visual synonym for the creeping transformation. Working on colour negatives and alluding to the minimalist poetics of topographic photography, Zieliński created an image of the post-socialist countryside that is the first of its kind, moving and empathetic, constructed from mist and a thousand and one shades of grey.
EXHIBITIONS 2020
At the joint exhibition Equivalent Arrangement Michał Budny and Kajetan Sosnowski meet for the first time. The works of both artists, seemingly abstract, in various ways defy easy classifications of genre. They operate through images and masses but use little painting or sculpting. Their compositions generally finds its origins in an abstract drawing—noted on paper or only conceptualized—as a type of minimalist score, the simplest recording of an idea.

EXHIBITIONS 2019
The show “Neither” is Budny’s latest radical statement, this time with a vector aiming upwards, “into space, far from earthly concerns and triviality, from the quotidian and everything that weighs us down and detracts us from what is important.”
BOOK WITH ART
Only two copies of the original, artist-signed xerographic print by Edward Dwurnik, created in 1978, remain available. Each print is offered together with the *Workers* album in the special collector’s edition.
Collector’s offer
Original posters by Edward Dwurnik from the 1980s, which accompanied individual shows by the artist. The expressive style of these works and the spareness of their printing perfectly capture the specific climate of the crisis decade of martial law, strikes, and the dawn of the Polish transformation.
Aneta Grzeszykowska, who underwent gymnastics training during her school years, also uses her own body as a tool, creating filmic choreographies and political posters with it. Istnienie emerged in the wake of the Women’s Strike protests, but it also functions as a form of existential training, prompting reflection on the inseparability of language, consciousness, and its bodily vessel.
Janek Simon is known for his unconventional journeys into the depths of the world and into distant moments of history, translating his experiences from these voyages into the language of contemporary, democratic technologies. This time, in a series of figures realized using his distinctive 3D printing technique, the artist evokes the figure of the plague doctor.

Nicolas Grospierre is a renowned artist and photographer, an explorer of brutalist architecture, and a creator of illusionistic photographic objects. A few years ago, he discovered the charms of heliography—images created using sunlight. The abstract compositions he produces on fabrics have been exhibited, among other places, at the Palace on the Isle in Warsaw’s Łazienki Royal Park. Helioderm is an intriguing attempt to transfer this same method onto the surface of human skin.
PAULINA STASIK’S BOOK
The publication devoted to the work of Paulina Stasik, entitled Autoportret z językiem na wierzchu, presents an extensive selection of the artist’s works accompanied by her own commentary. The volume is further complemented by essays by Natalia Gierowska and Michalina Sablik.
Dominika Olszowy is an artist unafraid to stoop low—picking up tiny fragments of reality, a lump of last year’s snow, or a fresh tuft of dust swept from the floor. In her hands, the small and humble can shine, as with the “broken penny”—a signature pendant on a silver chain. A new standard in artistic […]
