The Summer that Changed It All: The Festival of 1955

The festival’s history unfolds as a formal journey — from the clean lines and Indian reds of organized reconstruction, through fluid curves, vibrant yellows, and soft cream backgrounds evoking the colors of celebration, to deep greys that probe the underlying processes set in motion that summer. Complementing the exhibition are works by contemporary artists: textiles by Paulina Włosowska, drawings by Jacek Świdziński and multimedia artwork by Julia Krivich
