  Young Poland. Polish Art 1890-1918

  The exhibition “Young Poland”, dedicated to Poland and the development of Polish art in its “golden period“, that is between 1890 and 1918, will be held in Japan in 2025. It will tell a story about Polish history, the prologue to which will be outlined by works by Jan Matejko and Artur Grottger, as well as about Polish art, which at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries was not only part of the process of constructing national identity, but also ensured Poland’s presence and successes in the art salons of Europe despite the fact that Poland did not exist on maps of the time.

DIXIT MNK - THE OFFICIAL ADD-ON TO THE GAME WITH PAINTINGS BY POLISH MASTERS OF ART

Modern artists create unusual, meaningful paintings that perfectly spark the mind and allow you to dream up a wide range of connotations and discover them with your family and friends. However, classical art can be just as inspiring! A one-of-a-kind opportunity to experience the art from the collection of the National Museum in Krakow at home is a collaboration between our museum and partners: the Libellud studio (France), creators of the game, and the Rebel company, its Polish distributor. Classic art captured the minds of game fans for a moment. And there are many signs that it's just the beginning of the story.

  Matejko. The painter and history

  Among Polish painters, there is perhaps none more universally known than Jan Matejko. His works have accompanied generation after generation of Poles, at the very least from the beginnings of their education in the field of history, though mainly through reproductions in history books at that time. It is no exaggeration to say that the paintings of Matejko have shaped the imagination of the Polish nation on the greatest events of its own history. The painting “The Battle of Grunwald” (The painting is located in the National Museum in Warsaw)by this artist is the Polish painting most forcefully etched into the shared consciousness.
