Seeing with the Body. Galeria Studio Collection
Opening: March 15, 2024, 6 pm
Tuesday–Sunday, 12:00–7:00 pm
The exhibition is on view until May 5, 2024
“Seeing with the Body” is inspired by currents of philosophy and aesthetics that are critical of the Anthropocene. It derives from the intuition that artists have long been interested in those regions of sensibility that are today described in the context of posthumanism. Exhibition presents in a new light works by such classics of modern art in Poland as Erna Rosenstein, Konrad Jarodzki or Teresa Pągowska. We also recall the art of the neo-avant-garde by Teresa Tyszkiewicz, Józef Robakowski, Ewa Partum, Krystyna Piotrowska, Natalia LL. And we feature figurative art of the 70s and 80s in Poland, highlighting themes of body and sensuality in the work of Jan Dobkowski, Jerzy Ryszard Zieliński “Jurry,” Barbara Falender. We recall works by international artists, such as Andy Warhol or Keith Haring. And finally, we include works by artists of the younger generation, including Agnieszka Grodzińska, Agata Bogacka, Renata (Rara) Kamińska, Zuzanna Hertzberg and Alicja Bielawska.
The exhibition Seeing with the Body. Galeria Studio Collection was prepared for the OP ENHEIM institution in Wrocław, where it was on view from May 13 to August 20, 2023.
