  Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) is one of the most important creators of Japanese woodblock prints of the Edo period (1603–1868). His works depict a world captured in motion and constant change, characteristic of the aesthetics of ukiyo-e (literally “pictures of the floating world”).

  Transformations. Modernity in the Third Polish Republic

  The exhibition “Transformations. Modernity in the Third Polish Republic” is the last in the “4 x Modernity” series which has been organised at the National Museum in Krakow since 2021. As part of the exhibition, a wide variety of interpretations of modernity are shown in the fields of Polish art, architecture and design, beginning from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries and continuing up to the present day. This fourth exhibition will illustrate the phenomenon of the revision of the concept of modernity and its titular transformation, which were contemporaneous with the social, cultural, and political transformations which took place after 1989. A consequence of these transformations was a multiplicity of creative attitudes and a reinterpretation of the code of modernity, which no longer presented a unified and cohesive image yet which brought about a dynamic and diverse polyphony of voices, characteristic of the cultural life of the Third Republic.

The Myth of the Golden Fleece

The Golden Fleece, the title motif of the Georgia exhibition, derives from the oldest accounts of Greek mythology. It is an extraordinary tale of the mad courage of a few dozen Greek adventurers lured by tales of a land where the golden fleece (undoubtedly synonymous with greater riches) was stored. The heroes set out into the unknown in the hope of reaching this mythical place and capturing this gold. Imagine how ancient those times were, when even to the Greeks the Black Sea seemed to be a body of water of unrecognised size, and the lands to the north of it remained unknown. In ancient times, this story was mentioned by Homer in the Odyssey and by Pindar in his Fourth Pythian Ode.

  Adam Marczyński. Lyricism and Form

  The presentation of more than 60 works from the collections of the National Museum in Krakow and the Museum of Art in Łódź aims to highlight the moment at which the artistic credo of Adam Marczyński was taking form, where the caesura is the 1940s to the mid-1960s. The exhibition examines the post-war output of the artist, who in his later years became interested in geometric abstraction. It is an excellent opportunity to juxtapose the artist’s painted works with the subtle, even poetic drawings and outstanding monotypes. The story ends with works associated with the geometric abstraction movement. Marczyński’s art.

  The Singer. A Masterpiece by Józef Mehoffer

  Starting in the spring of 1894, Józef Mehoffer, who was on scholarship in Paris, began to devote his free time quite intensively to music. He owed this to having made the acquaintance at that time of the Janakowski sisters, Jadwiga (1871-1956), his future wife, and Wanda (1873-1940), who had come to the French capital to study art. They were from a landowning family in the Eastern Borderlands. Jadwiga developed her painting skills, while Wanda’s forte was singing. Both were particularly fascinated by the music of Richard Wagner
