Ladies and Gentlemen! When 13 years ago Warsaw

Transcription

Ladies and Gentlemen!
When 13 years ago Warsaw began its adventure with the Long Night
of Museums, 11 venues took part in the event – all of them museums.
This year, more than 250 institutions invite visitors. Despite this multitude
and diversity, the Long Night of Museums has not lost its basic and
founding character – popularizing museum collections. On this year’s
Long Night of Museums, on 14th May, 52 museums will be open. They
are the main axis of this cultural event, during which visitors may watch
permanent exhibitions or showcases prepared specially for this occasion.
The idea to allow venues unrelated with culture to participate in the
Long Night of Museums was born in 2009 and has received very positive
feedback from visitors. However, statistics shows that it is museums that
nighttime guests visit the most. Indeed, attendance records reaching
10 or 15 thousand visitors during one evening are held by
Warsaw-based museums.
I heartily invite you to the Long Night of Museums 2016. This year,
one more time, there will be plenty of attractions and specially prepared
events waiting for visitors. The guidebook will allow you to learn more
about them. See you on 14th May!

Opening of an extraordinary exhibition
of photographic and film works, titled
Tarchomin ‘80.
Wiesław Antosik graduated from
the National Film School in Łódź and
worked as a cameraman at Polish Television.
He left excellent photographs of “the already
historic Tarchomin” and... – a rarity! – films
which present the first blocks of flats, the
“desert” where Nowodwory are located today,
a small wooden church of Saint Mary, Mother
of Beautiful Love, the life of local community
clubs, the one-time “playground”, which
nowadays is a market place, riparian forests by
the Vistula, and a picnic organized nearby the
building site of Public School no. 314... Those
photographs and films have never been shown
before!
P R O G R A M M E :
— Inauguration of the open-air exhibition
of photographs Tarchomin ‘80 (Tuż Obok
gallery nearby BOK, by Picasso Park)
— Premiere screening of a film Tarchomin ‘80
(auditorium at BOK)

Wonderful story by Italian writer Alessandro
Baricco, about a genius self-taught pianist.
The story is told by his closest friend – a band
musician on a ship. Within a space limited
by the ship’s boards, there will be room for
passion, music, friendship and dreams.
A world of an outstanding hero is unveiled.
A hero whose musical talent is almost magical.
However, what happens when life demands
him to meet its hard requirements? Will he
take on the challenge and try to submerse, or
continue to stay on the surface – of both the
ocean and life?
— Exhibition of works by Joanna Roszkowska
The artist is a designer of industrial forms
by profession. Painting and sculpting are her
passions. Her artistic works are characteristic
for their biomorphism. She draws inspiration
from soft, organic forms of surprising, abstract
shapes, which she observes in the nature.

Presentation of artistic demeanours of two
artists: Sylwia Caban and Waldemar Mazurek
Sylwia Caban’s exhibition is a showcase of
sculptures and paintings which are an excerpt
from a project titled Inclusions – Omitted
Objects.
In this context, inclusions are a reference
to objects and phenomena which remain
unnoticed or are perceived as foreign bodies
within the space of a city. This artistic
statement is based on “irrelevant” objects,
which oftentimes are marked with peculiar
“non-aesthetic” and may be described as
a form of a relic. It is a peculiar recycling
of omitted things.
Waldemar Mazurek’s exhibition is
a presentation of pieces made from bronze,
ceramics and stone. It is a sculptural story
of a human form locked in hard matter
– a commentary on our mundaneness,
carnality, and at the same time an action
which stops the passing of a human being
in one particular moment.

Muzeum Utracone 2016
The idea behind the project is to search for
new ways of popularizing knowledge about
national heritage lost especially during the
Second World War. The project aims to
“mentally retrieve” this heritage and bring
back the memory of lost works of art, as most
of them cannot be found and brought back
physically.
In the Lorentz Courtyard, in front of the
National Museum, a film titled Muzeum
Utracone 2016 will be screened, dedicated to
the artistic oeuvre of Jan Matejko. Preparing
and using a modern animated film, artistically
attractive and accessible – thanks to its form
– for most audiences, will make it possible
to present works of art and their stories from
the moment when they appeared in Polish
collections until their wartime lot, to viewers
of all ages, irrelevant of their interests and
education. The organizers wish to show
viewers just how extremely difficult it was
to hide the works (among them – enormous
paintings) from invaders and store them
throughout the war, as well as present
artworks which, despite efforts, were stolen
and have still not returned to their owners.
The film screening will be accompanied by
games, including interactive ones, taking place
in both of the Museum’s courtyards.

It was built 1776–1778 for Kazimierz
Poniatowski, brother of King Stanisław
August, following a project by Szymon
Bogumił Zug. The object was a unique,
internationally famous underground reception
room of the Prince. After its short-lasting
heyday, Elizeum fell into oblivion. At present,
the object is semi-ruined and is not available

Joanna Stasiak: Classical Landscape
Silk painting is an old, demanding technique.
More than four years ago, during her artistic
travel in India, it became a new technical
challenge for Joanna Stasiak. Stasiak analyses
formal and material issues, which she was
uneasy about earlier.
Joanna Stasiak, just like in previous years
on canvases, now – on silk supports, creates
works that emanate freshness, but are at the
same time filled with the sense of connection
with artistic tradition, with creative output of
grand masters (such as Nicolas Poussin, Pierro
della Francesco or mentor professor Janusz
Kaczmarski)

and – created specially for this exhibition
– a 10-metre frieze (2007–2016). The works
were made of various pieces of archival

Izabella Bryzek: Greetings from the Ecosphere
This individual exhibition of works by
Izabella Bryzek is another presentation of her
deliberations concerning the relation between
the human being and the world around,
which we unceasingly get to know, investigate
and transform. This time, the artist will lock
within the space of gallery objects which she
describes as “mementos” from the eponymous
Ecosphere. Iza attempts to present selected
items, elements of our everyday lives, as rare
and desirable things. They become artefacts
present in only one place that we know of: the
Earth – a planet orbiting in the Ecosphere. The
exhibition will include paper objects imitating
plants, collages made of scraps of randomly
combined pieces of continents, and curtains
with images of the sky.

The Jews – project by The Krasnals
It’s a collection of several dozens of paintings
of various sizes, presenting famous Jews. All
scenes shown in the paintings were taken from
European and American films made within
the last 80 years. Therefore, the works, created
as a natural consequence of the famous
project by Krzysztof Uklański, titled The
Nazis, present faces of famous characters who
are commonly known, but thanks to the big
screen. It creates a specific quality – debatable
when it comes to the connection of a historic
truth, authenticity with the transmitted
knowledge, emotions, all kinds of values that
we are unable to precise well. After all, it’s
about a visual transmission, which, by adding
a new context, opens a new, surprising space

Franciszek Starowieyski – The Abduction
of Europe and Other Topics
Exhibition of works by one of the most
significative Polish artists of the 20th century.
Franciszek Starowieyski was the first Pole to
have an individual exhibition of his works
showcased at New York’s MoMA. He was
awarded for his creative output with the
most important prizes in the world. He
had an authentic and never-ending need
to create, which he expressed, inter alia, in
sketches and drawings. At the same time, he
was building his own legend: his passions
and extravagances manifested themselves
e.g. in antedating of his paintings, changing
the date of creation to the times of mature
Baroque – a period which meant a lot to the
artist. Starowieyski said once that for him only
moments of bewilderment were art; the rest
was craft. He himself bewildered recipients
of his works incessantly. For example, by
proposing a painting titled Pagan Europe
Kidnaps Catholic Poland (Pogańska Europa
porywa katolicką Polskę) to The Representative
of the Republic of Poland in Brussels. The
exhibition at Katarzyna Napiórkowska’s Art
Gallery includes, i.a., sketches for this work.

He was also a co-initiator of an artistic

provost of the European Academy of arts,
he educated many young painters. Fałat was
always characterized by an uncompromising
vision and compositional boldness. His
paintings, which touch on deep psychological
issues, include also important aspects of the
contemporary world. This is painting filled

where he met Rembrandt’s art for the first

artistic quest. Having come back to Poland,
he turned to a lapidary form – at first only
black-and-white, later with added colours
– and that was how the his famous series
were created: Reminiscences, Family,

An artist considered to be a representative
of a new figuration – Szamborski did not
succumb to the pressure of the Socialist
times; instead, he was able to make use of
generational experiences, by commenting
on them in the form of realism. In the
centre of his artistic thought was topicality
in the situation of interpersonal tensions,
emphasizing the solitude of an individual.
The colour palette used in the works
– conventional and symbolical – unmasks
the reality, educes individual psychic and
emotional conditions.

Studium procesu wydobycia – the newest
works by Michał Szuszkiewicz
Subtle and underspecified, abstract
compositions by Michał Szuszkiewicz were
created in line with the idea of “craft clearing”,
which the artist undertook in search of the
gist of a work of art’s substance. Adapting
the way archaeologists work to the language
of painting, he formed paintings by rubbing
paint or washing it away, as opposed to the
traditional way of applying new and new
layers of it. The use of paper, instead of canvas,
intensifies the effect of elusiveness of the
extraction study stopped during the process.
The works were presented in 2015 at Junge
Kunst Museum in Frankfurt (Oder), within
a project titled New Lands (Nowe Ziemie).

Tango is an unique, hand-made artistic book,
issued irregularly between 1983 and 1987
by a group of creators gathered around an
independent gallery in Łódź, named “Strych”.
The name Tango was chosen because if its
absurdity and a simple association with
flouncing, “one step forward, two steps back”.
9 issues were published, in a small number
of copies, therefore only very few have been
preserved until today, and their prices are
sky-high.
The exhibition at Propaganda Gallery,
presenting particular pages, photographs
and films, will be the first such a broad and

The author about the exhibition: “I’ve come

preserve an elusive reflection in a window
pane, a pacifier by a fence or an onion
wrapped in a little quilt. It is Magic and
absurdity, right near us. Everyday”.

With the use of ancient techniques of metal
forming, the artist creates replicas of tin
hats, as well as unique sculptures made from
sheet metal. The exhibition showcases mostly
copper plate helmets, which are an attempt at
using a helmet’s utilitarian role as a medium
for presenting a portrait. Hence the title of the
exhibition, Galeatorium, from the Latin galea,
meaning “a helmet”. Among the presented
helm-portraits, there are extraordinary images
of Polish female vocalists, such as Anna Maria
Jopek and Kayah.

Farewell with Emilia
On the Long Night of Museums, the Museum
of Modern Art in Warsaw is leaving its
hitherto seat – Emilia pavilion, a precious
example of Polish modernism, and one facing
the threat of being pulled down. The four-year
lease ends at midnight on 14th May. Empty
and prepared for being returned, Emilia will
become an enormous stage for music and
dance events, the culmination of which on
this Saturday evening will be a concert spread
over the whole building. A choir composed
of several dozens of immigrants and refugees
living in Poland, associated by Fundacja Strefa
Wolnosłowa, will perform The Great Learning
by Cornelius Cardew. This communal ritual
for amateurs and professionals is seen as
a milestone of the 20th-century music. It
will be accompanied by solo performances
by Warsaw-based immigrant musicians,
choreographers and artists, taking place in
spaces previously unavailable for the public.
Moreover, there will be also guided tours of
the pavilion organized on this day, as well as
activities for the youngest participants of the
Long Night of Museums. Just before midnight,
all events planned for this evening at Emilia
will finish. Emilia’s visitors and employees
will leave the building together.

Theatre of marvels – exhibition
Nowadays miracles happen in temples and
places of worship. In theatre, the memory of
stagings of miracles is one of the elements
which create the legend of this art, as well
as set the diapason and horizons for theatre’s
dreams and poetry. This poetry may manifest
especially in those types of the performing arts
which apply the language and performative
techniques of the theatre of marvels – theatre
of impossible things – such as e.g. Shakespeare’s
Theatre, Romantic theatre or doll theatre.
In Medieval theatre, a separate genre called
drama-theatre-miracle was present, as well as
stories of miracles of the Blessed Virgin Mary
and other saints of God. Theatre of marvels
may take place not only at the heights of
poetry but also at the level of ludic culture
– totally tawdry entertainment. All in all,
theatre is also a shack showcasing miracles.
We can all hear it in our ears: “People, people!
Miracles in this shack!”.

Open-air game
We will follow trails of greater and smaller
stories which took place in the Botanical
Garden of the University of Warsaw. We will
be guided by plants – those which remember
the founders of the Garden and those which
were only just planted recently, but have
a historical aspect to them. During the game
you will hear some gossip from one-time
directors, learn what 19th-century criminal
chronicles have to say about the garden, what
the foundation stone of the Temple of Divine
Providence is doing here, what was going on
here during the WW II and where pineapples
served to King Stanisław came from. In short:
you will go through almost 200 years of the
history of the University Garden and look
at it from various perspectives: through the
prism of grand historic events which left their
stamp on this place, everyday stories of people
connected with the Garden, as well as the
history of plants and gardening.
N O T I C E :
There are gravel alleys in the Garden,
which may pose some difficulties for
disabled people to move around.
Guests bringing their own torches will
be welcome.
Tours will take ca. 40 minutes and more.

Among refinedly shiny surfaces of the sitting

We may treat dust literally – as a matter, but
also as a metaphor. As a matter, it may mean
waste or dirt, but on the other hand, it proves
high resistance to time and space.

M O R E O V E R :
Marathon of Andrzej Kałuszko films,
dedicated to the history of the capital city
(at Scena Oficyna):
— Flight over the Conquered City (Przelot nad
zdobytym miastem) – documentary; created
on the basis of shots of Warsaw found by
Krzysztof Jaszczyński, taken by a German
cameraman flying on a Luftwaffe plane over
capitulating Warsaw on 28th September 1939
(22 minutes).
— The Beginning (Początek) – documentary;
a continuation of Flight over the Conquered
City. The documentary was made from
excerpts from German chronicles and films,
including those made available recently in
American archives. Apart from numerous
shots taken from a low-flying plane, parts of
the film were shot on the ground. Much of the
footage was most probably recorded by the
Germans in order to analyse the effectiveness
of their bombing strategy. Nowadays it is
a unique documentation of the beginning of
the occupation, the effects of which were so
immensely tragic for Warsaw’s inhabitants
and the city itself. The footage was enriched
with newspaper clippings from those times
(30 minutes).
— Warsaw – Aerial View (Warszawa w locie)
– film impression; shots of Warsaw taken on
a helicopter flying over the most interesting
places of the Capital City (5 minutes).
— Pre-war Warsaw (Przedwojenna Warszawa)

thanks to this fact, the performance we create

of modernity, in which topics such as women’s
rights, religion, science, approach to sexuality
or models of femininity and masculinity are
defined anew – slowly, our contemporary
world emerges from them.

Gregor Gonsior’s Merzbau is a peculiar
homage to one of the progenitors of Dadaism,
Kurt Schwitters. The artist’s eponymous
Merzbaus, created in the 1920s and the 1930s,
were monumental and abstract interiors,
combining sculptural, architectural and
painting elements, and expressing their
author’s turn to Gesamtkunstwerk, which was
a hybrid of those different forms of expression.
Merzbau works were enormous undertakings,
requiring much work and time. Schwitters
covered walls with three-dimensional shapes,
created grottos, niches, filled them with
random objects, litter, scraps. He claimed
that – in a physical and ideological sense
– Merzbau contains everything that mattered
to him.
Almost 90 years have passed since the
times of Schwitters’ Merzbau. The matter
of contemporary times surrounding us has
changed. Widely available waste has changed
too. Will Gonsior’s contemporary Merz adapt
to present-day realities or will it rather stay true
to traditional qualities, unchanged since the
very beginning of Dadaism? These questions
will be answered by the artist himself, via
a visual collage filled with intuitive clusters.

by Graphic Arts students at the Academy

The exhibition is a result of a programme
dedicated to shaping one’s thinking about
their own creative output in the context of the
space of an exhibition. It is a reversal of the
traditional order of organizing exhibitions,
where specific duties are assigned to curators,
artists, set designers, editors, and promotion
and education departments. This time, all
those functions have been taken over by the

presenting the artist’s multi-faceted interests
in the world music and relationships with its

Willa Jasny Dom (Bright House Villa) is
a beautiful, modernist tenement house,
built in the late 1930s. Unfortunately,
despite it’s optimistic name, it hides
a dramatic past. Between February and
October 1945, it was the seat of the Main
Directorate of Information of the Polish
Army. In its basements, prison cells were
located; interrogation rooms and offices
were set up on other floors. Over the seven
months more than a thousand women
and men were imprisoned here, including
soldiers of the Armia Krajowa. Martyrdom
inscriptions have been preserved until today
– carved on walls and doors with spyholes.

Izabela Chamczyk, Synergy
Izabela Chamczyk’s performance Synergy
includes actions based on viewers’ interaction
with painting matter “animated” by the artist.
Formal questions, such as colour, liquidity,
drying, structure, texture, shape, form,
composition, smell, limit, interior, externality,
space, image, installation – connected with
the emotional nature of a human being – will
be a reference point. The performance is an
invitation for viewers to step inside the
painting and co-create a story of themselves,
the world and art. The goal of the project is
to create a new, common space – a painting
arrangement of an interior. The project assumes
engagement of the senses (sight, touch,
smell) as well as emotional and intellectual
engagement of viewers. The final effect will
be achieved through a synchronization of
individual people’s reactions and actions.

Beta 16 Gallery is a gallery of contemporary
art. Its activity is based on painting, which is,
however, accompanied by other arts – such
as sculpture or photography.
As far as painting goes, we are most of all
interested in abstraction – geometric and non-geometric. Lyrical and organic abstraction,
the language of geometry, op-art, Tachisme,
action painting, matter painting and the use
of sign convention...
Our offer includes paintings by classical
contemporary artists, avant-garde
representatives, famous and acclaimed – from
the top of “collectors’ popularity”. However, we
also bring back excellences known by experts.
Therefore, they create a new, attractive quality
on the market.
Moreover, we offer works by artists of younger
generations. The gallery’s programme could
be concisely put as: “keep up” and “level-up”
– and the “up” is top shelf in our gallery.

Ryszard Horowitz: Unknown Portraits
An extraordinary exhibition of photographs
by Ryszard Horowitz. The project showcases
pictures which have never been published
before, portraying, e.g., Roman Polański,
Daniel Olbrychski, Jerzy Kosiński, Jan
Lebenstein, Adam Hoffman, Piotr Skrzynecki,
Urszula Dudziak, Zuzanna Łapicka, Kropka
Gosławska, Andrzej and Magda Dudziński.
The presented photographs were taken, inter
alia, at Ryszard Horowitz’s studio in New York,
during the artist’s private meetings with the
heroes of the pictures. These extraordinary
works form a kind of a photographic diary and
they are accompanied by Ryszard Horowitz’s
memories.
Ryszard Horowitz about Roman Polański’s
photograph: “I caught the moment when, in
1965, in a New York hotel, Romek offered
his love to Frankenstein. Most clearly, he
was already planning on filming The Fearless
Vampire Killers (Nieustraszeni pogromcy
wampirów), created two years later.”
Ryszard Horowitz about Daniel Olbrychski
and Jerzy Kosiński’s photograph: “Two of my
friends, Jerzy Kosiński and Daniel Olbrychski,
visited me at the studio in 1984. Out of the
corner of my eye, I was observing them,
watching them joke. I am not sure which one
of them presented a greater artistry in acting;
I couldn’t take my eyes off their expressive
faces, the contrast between the good looks
of a Semite and a Slav. An improvised photo
shoot resulted from that meeting and there
are numerous individual shots and double
portraits remaining.

Sekuła and Łukasz Rudnicki, PhD.
The exhibition will present works created
during the 2015/2016 academic year. The
starting point for the works is a figure
study – an insightful observation of a model
in a drawing studio. Later, time comes
for experiments, searching for one’s own
artistic language. What is characteristic of
this exhibition is this variety of creative
attitudes. Subtlety, softness and delicacy are
counterbalanced by expression and unbridled
temperament – gesture, marks of a black spot
and an aggressive line. The works were created
by students of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th year, and
pedagogues.

Małgorzata Markiewicz: Fairy-tale
of Leaving and Returning – exhibition
It is a project touching on the idea of home
as a haven, at the same time presenting
home as a place of oppression. An attempt
to comprehend the role of home in our
life is an obvious reference point for the
artist. She brings our attention to the role of
boldness, hope, intuition or longing, which
may transform our life, and points to the fact
that strength which we draw from home may
both attract and repel us. Home as a place of
oppression becomes a prison at times.
