The exhibition confronts the works by the most uncompromising
outsiders, treating art as a form of protest, with the works of counterculture artists, representing the punk scene and other alternatives
to mainstream creativity. The exhibition shows the wealth of links
between outsider art and the alternative culture achieved by various
media i.e. painting, video, poster, photography or music. Works by selected artists from the collection of Muzeum Sztuki Nowoczesnej are
complemented by works belonging to Muzeum Śląskie (Włodzimierz
Czerwa, Maria Wnęk) and works by independent artists (Zbigniew
Libera, Robert Brylewski and others). A screening of films made for
amateur film clubs, created by workers belonging to hippie and punk
subcultures, enriches the exhibition.

VIDEO-ART ACADEMY
MEETING WITH JÓZEF ROBAKOWSKI
7.02.2017 / at 17.00
Muzeum Śląskie, Katowice is a cultural institution of the
Self-Government of the Silesian Voivodeship and the Ministry
of Culture and the National Heritage
This years’ series of meetings devoted to video-art, which aims at an
analysis of the creative field from a historical perspective, is opened
by a lecture by Józef Robakowski: Cinematic Form Workshop – the
Birth of Polish Video-Art. The Academy starts with a presentation
of the initial fascination of artists with the new medium, perceived
as experimental at the time. Subsequent meetings will be devoted
to its development up to modern times, when video or multimedia
installations have become a common form of artistic expression, they
are now treated the same as other media. A short outline of video-art
history, including its most significant artists and events essential to its
development, will be presented by experts in the field: leading artists,
art historians and theoreticians.

KAISERPANORAMA
I AM SHOOTING AT YOU, LADY! – OR CARNIVAL CUSTOMS OF OUR ANCESTORS
january–
march
2017
5.01–15.05.2017
“I am shooting at you, lady!” was the brief invitation used by bachelors
to ask maidens to dance with them especially during the carnival,
when the calendar was filled with spontaneous, occasional or formal
balls. When there were more marriageable girls at home, fathers vied
with one another in ideas for an evening devoted to dancing and
making acquaintances. In the arena of carnival leniency, under the
watchful eye of guardians, the young were supposed to strike a chord
with each other, which significantly contributed to the marriage
arrangements made in middle-class circles. The scene presented in
Kaiserpanorama reveals the background of the time of carnival heart
magnetism, beginning with the New Year.

EXHIBITIONS
PIOTR SZYMON
PHOTOGRAPHY
22.01–25.06.2017
A man shown in his everyday life, joy and sorrow, on the verge of the
sacred and the profane, at a moment existentially significant for him –
this is the main theme of Piotr Szymon’s works.
The exhibition of his pictures presents three basic thematic and formal
threads in the artist’s output, that is pilgrims, the Roma people, a portrait and an artistic experiment. Such circles of interest determine the
manner in which he presents mankind – always in the centre of the
photographic stories he creates. Systematic returns to selected themes
are interpreted here as a creative attempt to solve the puzzle that is
human life and to understand the values sought by human beings.
MONUMENTAL BEAUTY
STANISŁAW HILARY POPŁAWSKI
17.12.2016–26.03.2017
The presentation of Stanisław Hilary Popławski’s creations is not
only a monographic exhibition, but also a reminder of an artist
who has been somewhat neglected in recent times, represents the
trend of new classicism. The exhibition of works by Popławski,
who was at the time already 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.

VLADIMÍR BIRGUS
PHOTOGRAPHY
25.03–3.09.2017
This exhibition of one of the most widely recognized Czech photographers, journalists and curators comprises works from the years
1986–2016. The exhibition sums up the artistic oeuvre of Birgus, it
also shows the evolution of his output from documenting reality to
divergent thinking. In the 1970s and 1980s, he created a collection of
black-and-white photos depicting Czechoslovakian society. The works
were generated on a foundation of the tradition of socially oriented
art, drawing on the practice of the photographic essay. The formula of
subjective photography was adopted at a later stage, this allowed him
to introduce his own creative elements to documentary forms.

SUBURBAN CHRONICLES
PAWEŁ WRÓBEL’S PAINTING
3.02–17.09.2017
Paweł Wróbel is one of the most colourful figures of Silesian non-professional art. In his joyful multicoloured paintings he depicts genre
scenes set in the Silesian landscape, in which the characteristic conical
slag heaps, high stacks, pithead towers and red familoki buildings
dominate. His expressive personality and characteristic painting put
him at the same level as Teofil Ociepka and Erwin Sówka. During
his life, he has painted hundreds of paintings and received awards in
many competitions. He has also been the subject of press articles and
documentaries. Paweł Wróbel’s paintings have found their way into
both museum and private collections.

DANI KARAVAN
REFLECTION / ODBICIE / ‫ָאּפשּפיגלונג‬
17.09.2016–17.09.2017
Currently the central hall space is at the disposal of Dani Karavan,
an Israeli sculptor, who, inspired by Hamlet and Silesian history, has
created a monumental installation combining the themes of poetry,
philosophy and hard miner’s labour. Muzeum Śląskie becomes a place
of reflection on human nature and the literal upon entering the installation created by the artist, to foster self-reflection and gain an insight
into oneself.

LIVE NATURE ALBUM
EXHIBITION OF WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY
BY MEMBERS OF THE SILESIAN
CHAPTER OF THE POLISH WILDLIFE
PHOTOGRAPHERS ASSOCIATION
5.11.2016–29.01.2017
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 to 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.

WOJCIECH KOSSAK,
JACEK MALCZEWSKI
28.10.2016–22.01.2017
The presented works by Wojciech Kossak and Jacek Malczewski,
artists who left behind an enormous output, are in a style characteristic for each of the artists, but at the same time they allow the public to
familiarise themselves with the part of the artists’ creation which has
not yet been exhibited in museum rooms. Both painters created large
sized works, renowned in history, but also less well known and nevertheless interesting paintings such as commissioned portraits.

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 part of a wider project realised by
the Centre for Polish Scenography. One of its elements is a series of exhibitions presenting the classical output, comprising original projects
selected by the creators of the 20th century theatre, together with a remix of their works made by an invited artist of the younger generation.
The selection may be conducted based on the cohesion resulting from
direct inspiration, personal contacts, the 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.
