1000 HANDS

Metaphorically and seasonally, the exhibition 1000 Hands suits the climate of the pre-​spring thaw, illuminating a land­scape of exhaustion and approaching, intuitively sensed change. In Polish literature this metaphor car­ries a political dimen­sion. In the works shown together here by Rafał Buj­now­ski (1974–), Peter Puklus (1980–) and Zofia Rydet (1911–1997), what is vital is the very process of trans­for­mation, and the accom­panying ambivalence, the tem­perature of inter­per­sonal relations and the poten­tial of the human hands from the title.

Karolina Jabłońska
SLIPPERY

“Slippery” at Raster is Karolina Jabłońska’s first individual show in Warsaw. In her pain­tings girls wear rings and guys wear wat­ches, but the stereo­typical logic of dominance is rever­sed. The heroines here are idols, sooth­sayers and thieves, and relation­ships and pas­sions explode as violen­tly as they end, in emotion. Here exag­geration and hyper­bole are the rule for both com­position and life.

ROMUALD GUTT’S WARSAW

A book devoted to the work of Romuald Gutt, one of the most impor­tant Polish architects of the 20th cen­tury, forerun­ner of organic architec­ture, designer of charac­teristic buil­dings of grey brick, public edifices and residen­tial structures.

Slavs and Tatars
Noblesse Oblige (sunflower)

Slavs and Tatars’ work often mixes registers of high and low, high-​brow ideologies and low-​brow media (pic­kles to bal­loons). In that vein, roasted sun­flower seeds are a staple snack, shared across the Slavic-​Turkic peoples from Eastern Europe to Cen­tral Asia. Like the wheat of Wheat Mollah, the sun­flower seed becomes a symbol of proletariat or rather, its 21st cen­tury suces­sor, the précariat.

Olaf Brzeski
Post Tenebras Lux

The set of in-​glaze pain­ted and triple-​fired ceramic plates bears a Latin title: Post Tenebras Lux, which mean “after dark­ness comes the light”.

If I Were the Moon

The post-​romantic figure of the drun­ken artist is fading into the past, leaving behind a land­scape lit­tered with hal­lucinations, depravity, and shat­tered illusions. This is the story of the intimate ties between con­tem­porary art and vodka. Con­ceived as a medley of artworks and documen­tary con­tent, the exhibition features Krzysztof M. Bed­nar­ski, Olaf Brzeski, Michał Budny, Rafał Buj­now­ski, Oskar Dawicki, Edward Dwur­nik, Władysław Hasior, Jerzy Lewczyński, Honorata Martin, Dominika Olszowy, Zbigniew Rogal­ski, Wil­helm Sasnal, and others.
