IN THE HEART
OF ANCIENT CITY
EXHIBITION OF PHOTOGRAPHS
BY ROBERT SŁABOŃSKI
20.08–4.12.2016
Paphos is one of the major ancient cities in Cyprus. Its monuments are
on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The exhibition presents photos
of excavation works conducted by the Jagiellonian University archaeological team since 2011. Locating an agora from the 4th century B.C.
is one of the greatest achievements of the Polish scientists.

For many visionaries coming to Silesia from various regions
of Poland in the 20th century, it was Katowice which was to become
the embodiment of the new image of the epoch – the time when experimentation in all spheres was a must. Words were released from the
pressure of meaning, convention was fought against on principle, the
dictates of movement and multiplication techniques inspired creative
pursuits both in architecture and in daily life, the limits of imagination were pushed ever further by means of the photographic medium.
Thus, the seance composed of 48 stereopairs will present not only the
city, but also the region as a semi-futuristic symphony in honour of
modernity, where a machine line, a building volume, or even work of
human hands itself became an aesthetic determinant.

The presentation of Stanisław Hilary Popławski’s creation is not only
a monographic exhibition, but also a reminder of an artist somewhat
forgotten today, representing the trend of new classicism. The exhibition of works by Popławski, who was highly esteemed for his technical
mastery, is also an attempt to show how important tradition is in
shaping what is defined as avant-garde. For the contemporary viewer,
a new interpretation of his art may be an inspiring experience, but also
a return to traditional, non-avant-garde art.

Art brut is a mysterious phenomenon, in which creation becomes
a duty rather than the meaning of life. The artist may lose touch with
reality, but never with his urge to create, which determines his life.
Władysław Grygny is an example of such creative personality. Weird,
isolating himself from the society, on the verge of subsistence, he has
created expressive and colourful images for a few dozen years, never
showing them to anyone, with the idée fixe of a message he is obliged
to convey to the world. The fact that his paintings find their way to
museum and private collections in Poland and abroad is outside his
awareness.

EXHIBITION OF WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY

CHAPTER OF THE POLISH WILDLIFE
PHOTOGRAPHERS ASSOCIATION
5.11.2016–29.01.2017
On exhibition in the rooms in al. W. Korfantego will be the most
interesting icons, arranged thematically. As Orthodox Christian art
enjoys great popularity, it is the second time the icons – which became
part of the museums’ collections following confiscation by customs
authorities to prevent their being smuggled abroad – have been
exhibited. Together, the two museums have the largest collection
of Orthodox Christian religious objects in Silesia.
The 110 photographs presented here portray the uniquely colourful
and rich world of flora, imposing landscapes and animals in their
natural habitats, in places very distant and hardly accessible for us,
but also in ones we pass by every day. The works by members of the
Silesian Chapter of the Polish Wildlife Photographers Association,
created within the last 20 years and presented in the exhibition, have
been awarded and displayed at numerous national and international
photography competitions.

From September 2016, the central hall space is at the disposal of Dani
Karavan, an Israeli sculptor, who, inspired with Hamlet and
Silesian history, has created a monumental installation combining
themes of poetry, philosophy and hard miner’s labour. Muzeum
Śląskie became a place of reflection on human nature and the literal
entering the installation created by the artist, foster self-reflection and
gaining insight into oneself.

CANON AND REMIX OF SPACE
IN THE POLISH THEATRE
OF THE 20TH AND 21ST
CENTURY. JÓZEF SZAJNA
19.11.2016–26.02.2017
The exhibition Canon and Remix is a part of a wider project realised
by the Centre for Polish Scenography. One of its elements is a series of
exhibitions presenting the ”canonic” output, comprising original projects selected by the demiurges of the 20th century theatre, together
with a remix of their works created by an invited artist of a younger
generation. The selection may be conducted based on the cohesion
resulting from direct inspiration, personal contacts, master-disciple
relationship or conscious rejection and negation. The current exhibition presents Józef Szajna’s painterly works and an installation by Olga
Warabida – an artist pursuing animation, graphics and multimedia
scenography design.

The presented works by Wojciech Kossak and Jacek Malczewski, artists who left behind an enormous output, are kept in the style characteristic for each of the artists, but at the same time allow the public to
familiarise themselves with the part of the artists’ creation which has
not been exhibited in museum rooms yet. Both painters created large
sized works, renowned in history, but also less known and nevertheless interesting paintings such as commissioned portraits.
