up We invite you to a series of short but informative meetings with the exhibition curator. “Close” is an opportunity to immerse yourself in contexts, stories, and details that often escape you when visiting on your own. For 30 minutes, we will look at selected works together, talk about the ideas behind the exhibition, and exchange perspectives.    

The format of the meetings is based on conversation and questions—it is the audience that sets the pace and direction of the meeting. The curator responds, adds comments, and reveals the behind-the-scenes work on the exhibition, sharing his personal perspective and previously untold stories.

    Krystyna Wojtyna-Drouet. I Cease to Exist for Myself

    The solo presentation of Krystyna Wojtyna-Drouet's works is the result of the artist’s long-standing, deeply intuitive relationship with material and craft. The exhibition brings together tapestry textiles, sketches, dyeing recipes and archival materials, revealing the processual nature of her practice, grounded in attentive observation and improvisation. A key point of reference within the exhibition is Uliczka (1962) — a work that marked a breakthrough both in the artist’s career and in the history of the Polish school of textile art.
