  • Grafika do wystawy Christian Hutzinger’s
    18.05 – 31.12.2013
    Christian Hutzinger’s
    W/W

    Christian Hutzinger’s W/W is an installation that combines painting and architecture. In a previously unused space, the artist has placed his trademark elements: a letter, a geometric figure, and colour. These play with the ‘inconvenient’ architecture of a basement niche, stressing its function as an ‘entrance/exit’ or ‘introduction’ to what awaits inside. The letter ‘W’, with its many meanings, is a sign that the artist plays with on every possible level.

  • Grafika do wystawy Freelancer
    04.06 – 04.08.2013
    Freelancer

    The exhibition explores the paradigm shift of “being an artist”. During the past 20 years, artists have been forced to redefine their place on the map of social roles and economical interdependences. A stark example of this transformation that took on quite a radical form was the artists' strike in May 2012, initiated by the Civic Forum for Contemporary Art. This topic constructed a bracket for this exhibition that was largely inspired by the libretto of the first national German opera by Carl Maria von Weber's entitles Freelancer (premiered in 1821).

  • Grafika do wystawy Janicka & Wilczyk. Other City
    22.06 – 28.07.2013
    Janicka & Wilczyk. Other City

    Other City is a documentary photographic project that attempts to visually map the area of the Jewish ghetto (Warsaw Ghetto, 1940–1943) created by Nazi Germany in the heart of the Polish capital. The artists photograph the area from the rooftops and top floors of buildings using a 4x5 inch-sheet camera. They work from autumn to spring, on sunless days, avoiding chiaroscuro and trying to avoid capturing foliage as this blurs the street grid and alters the modelling of solid figures. The project is in colour, which is perceived by the artists as more realistic and natural than black-and-white photography.

    GMOs Kill Honey

    A project by students of Łukasz Skąpski at the Art Academy in Szczecin. A direct inspiration for the exhibition at the Zachęta Project Room was a signing of a bill that legalized in Poland the registration and trading of genetically modified seeds.  At large, displayed works focus on the issues revolving around transgenic crops.

    The Rise and Fall of Air

    The Rise and Fall of Air is the second part of sculptor Katarzyna Krakowiak’s ‘architectural trilogy’, following Making the walls quake as if they were dilating with the secret knowledge of great powers, which received a special mention at the 13th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice. It is not however a simple relocation of her intervention in the Polish Pavilion.

  • Grafika do wystawy Free Time. Photographs
    13.08 – 22.09.2013
    Free Time. Photographs

    Romuald Broniarek, Aleksander Jałosiński, Bogdan Łopieński, Jan Morek, Wojciech Plewiński, Tadeusz Rolke

    These six photographers – the oldest of them born in 1928, the youngest in 1940 – spent most of their professional lives in communist Poland. All of them worked for official presstitles. This exhibition of photographs, however, is an unofficial portrait of those times. The photos do not show government ceremonies, hierarchically framed heads of state or the heroes of propaganda reports. The people presented in the photographs are not at work: they are at leisure, using their time freely.
