Szapocznikow. Personal
20 Mar - 28 Aug, 2026
Gmach Główny
Alina Szapocznikow’s exhibition presents her intense and expressive sculptures, where torn and deformed figures stand alongside naturalistic polyester casts. Her style shifts from the strict lines of socialist realism to deeply personal works shaped by her war experiences and battle with breast cancer. The pieces focus on the human body as a powerful symbol blending history with sensuality. This show invites you to engage with her art on a personal level, even if you’re physically separated from the sculptures. The exhibition’s strength lies in conveying complex emotions through form and texture, making each piece feel like a quiet conversation. You may find yourself reflecting on resilience and vulnerability as you move through the space. It’s a thoughtful experience for anyone interested in art that challenges and moves you without words. Whether alone or with others, the works encourage a moment of pause and connection with the artist’s story.
