Marta Lisok
What happened at Lancaster House?
“The Garden of Earthly Delights”, a triptych by Hieronymus Bosch reveals an unknown land where animals coexist in a paradise symbiosis giving themselves up to refined caresses in a ritual dance.

| Translate: The Impossible Collection
Curator: Aneta Szyłak
Assistant curator and coordinator: Roma Piotrowska
Densification is the word which best shows the way in which the project is located within the concept of a collection and its presentation. It is not scrupulousness, regularity, archivability, predictability or a defined way of looking that plays a role here but subjectivity, openness, potentiality,... |

| Wojtek Bakowski: Are you going with me? – Where? – In dark fuck!
A Small Kingdom. On Wojtek Bakowski’s Drawings.
The oeuvre of Wojtek Bakowski, although it is expressed through multiple media: performance, music, poetry, drawing, and animated movie, has one common denominator. On the one hand, it is extremely individualistic and bears an identifiable hallmark, an unmistakeable signature of the author. On the other hand, it is significantly... |

| Anna Okrasko: Untitled (a Pepe Espaliú)
The presentation consists of 3080 almost identical, 10x10cm paintings – all hanging in a long, narrow corridor. The technicalities, however, may distort the essential meaning of this work, which resides not as much in a manner of arrangement, as in the fact of its being evocative of a certain type of experience - an uncomfortable and intimidating one, at that. The viewer goes for it... |
