Saturday ArtWalk: Very Diverse and Very Exquisite
Guided tour in English

Zachęta – National Gallery of Art
entry included in the ticket price

Graphics are the most numerous and at the same time the least known works in the Zachęta collection. The individual objects included in the exhibitions have never allowed a wider audience to look at the whole of the collection in a broader context. Therefore, we wanted to recall a genre that occupied such an important place on the artistic scene a few decades ago, yet over the last 30 years has been gradually marginalised. The 2,100 works in our collection are a very diverse set in terms of style, quality and form; with particularly outstanding works from the 1960s.

    Very Diverse and Very Exquisite
    Graphics from the collection of Zachęta

    Graphics are the most numerous and at the same time the least known works in the Zachęta collection. The individual objects included in the exhibitions have never allowed the broader audiences to look at the whole of the collection in a broader way. Therefore, we wanted to recall a genre that occupied such an important place on the artistic scene a few decades ago, and over the last 30 years has been gradually marginalised. The 2,100 works in our collection are a very diverse set in terms of style, quality and form; with particularly outstanding works from the 1960s. We noticed their consistency, high artistic level, as well as combination of traditional techniques with the search for new formal solutions, so characteristic of graphic arts.
