During the exhibition we present the 8 films selected by the artist as having had the greatest impact on her, films that later went on to influence her work.

I like these films, they made a powerful impression on me. The aesthetics of these films also speak to me… they are wildly original films, formally eccentric, ambiguous, strange, showing psychological complications in an unreal (exaggerated) way which serves to convey something essential.

    Nearly twenty years have passed since those events and Zachęta is holding her solo exhibition. This is not a retrospective, although all of Kozyra’s best known works – e.g. Animal Pyramid, Bathhouse, Men’s Bathhouse, The Rite of Spring and the films from the In Art Dreams Come True series – are on show. The exhibition marks a new phase in the artist’s latest project, an autobiographical feature film, for which she is seeking an actress/actor to play the main role – herself.
