A look back at the 21st Warsaw Art Fair:
On the weekend of November 23–24, 2024, the 21st edition of the Warsaw Art Fair took place at EXPO XXI in Warsaw.
More than 11,000 visitors joined us!
We hosted nearly 120 carefully selected galleries of contemporary art, antiquarian bookstores, and auction houses from all over Poland.
The three-day event featured highly popular meetings with distinguished artists and collectors, as well as panel discussions with experts from the world of art and culture.
Three exceptional exhibitions accompanied the fair:
-
“Instinct Primal” – an exhibition of expressive works by Eugeniusz Markowski, curated by Kama Zboralska
-
“Wojciech Weiss, Józef Jarema, Andrzej Fogtt – Three Paths to the Avant-Garde”, curated by Zofia Weiss(Exhibition Patron: MB Motors Mercedes-Benz)
-
“Juliusz Sokołowski. Fangor of Polish Photography” – photographs from the Kantor Sztuki collection
Lectures, panels, and artist talks were hosted by renowned journalists and art critics.
A conversation with Paweł Althamer and Artur Żmijewski—who spoke about their collaborative work—was led by Prof. Marta Smolińska and Ryszard Łazorczyk from Galeria SZOKART.
A summary of the year’s key art events was presented by Anna Jankowska (journalist, Artinfo.pl), with panel participation from Marta Czyż (curator of the Polish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale), Natalia Bradbury (curator of the Polish Pavilion at the Malta Biennale), and Anna Muszyńska (curator of the exhibition “In the First Person”, part of the Venice Biennale).
A talk with sculptors Beata Czapska, Iwona Demko, Aleksandra Kujawska, and Aleksandra Liput, moderated by Piotr Sarzyński (Polityka), drew large crowds.
Meetings with Jacek Yerka (moderated by Konrad Szukalski, AgraArt) and Wojciech Siudmak with Dorota Pieńkos, President of the Siudmak Art Foundation (moderated by Dominik Zieliński, ToTuArt), were a big surprise and delight for fans of surrealism.
Guests also had the chance to attend the world premiere of the film about Magdalena Abakanowicz – “Sister. The Unknown Story of Magdalena Abakanowicz” (directed by Andrzej Słodkowski). The screening was followed by a discussion with co-creator Magdalena Mielnicka (mia ART GALLERY), moderated by Piotr Sarzyński.
The discussion panel on collecting, titled “A Collection – Easier to Start Than to Finish. The Collector’s Dilemmas”, was led by Ryszard Kruk (founder and editor of www.kolekcjonerstwo.pl, member of the Feliks Jasieński Award Committee), with distinguished collectors Jarosław Przyborowski (Signum Foundation), Marek Roefler (Villa La Fleur), and Prof. Andrzej Strzałecki (collector and author of the album “The Strzałecki Art Collection”).
A lecture by Dr. Leszek Bukowski (expert in natural language processing) on the benefits and risks of artificial intelligence provided an opportunity to break away from common narratives and debunk myths about AI.
The panel “Art Manifesto”, led by philosophers Bogusław Jasiński and Grzegorz Borkowski, explored the process of writing a manifesto by an artists’ collective: Mateusz Bal, Dariusz Mlącki, Ryszard Ługowski, Paulina Sylwestrowicz, Iga Święcicka, and Robert Żbikowski.
This year, we celebrated two anniversaries: the 10th anniversary of Fresz Gallery and the 10th anniversary of ArtPost publishing.
The Warsaw Art Fair is a unique cultural event in Poland – a true celebration of art.
