During the upcoming ArtWalk we are going to visit a very special exhibition about Poland – Wild at Heart. This exhibition presents the Polish art scene post-1989 and focuses on portraits and self-portraits, which helps us ask the question: how do Poles view themselves after the fall of communism? The answer is not easy, since many of the presented works use humor and irony to depict their themes, making fun of conventional aspirations and aesthetic visions. ‘Wild at Heart’ presents works of countless important artists, including Alina Szapocznikow, Wilhelm Sasnal, Franciszka Themerson and Włodzimierz Pawlak.
