During the installment under the theme “Clues,” school-aged children worked alongside the curators, taking on the task of curating an exhibition from the collection of Sylwia and Piotr Krupa. The exhibition, titled by the children “A Name Without an Exhibition, an Exhibition Without a Name,” features works by Tony Cragg, Andy Warhol, Wilhelm Sasnal, Małgorzata Mirga-Tas, and many others. It will be open to visitors until June 1, 2025.

This installment consisted of three exhibitions. The other two—“The Coordinates,” curated by Monika Łuszpak-Skiba, and “My Memory Isn’t Mine,” curated by Natalia Barczyńska—were on view until March 2. In their place, two new exhibitions on love have opened: “The Neurobiology of Love” and “Struck.”

Closing Weekend of Two Exhibitions

An Unusual Presentation of the Sylwia and Piotr Krupa Collection

Embracing the idea that for art to fulfill its purpose, it must be shared, the Krupa Art Foundation founders, Sylwia and Piotr Krupa, have decided to make their private collection accessible to the public in the gallery space located in a prestigious spot in the centre of Wrocław (Rynek 27/28). This second presentation of their collection explores a dialogue between the iconic artists of the late 20th century and contemporary creators. This time, the Krupa Art Foundation team has invited its youngest audience to participate in curating the exhibition. Under the guidance of curators and educators, pupils aged 6–12 from the Jaskółka Primary School in Wrocław actively selected artworks and developed narrative paths to express their perspectives. The young curators titled the exhibition A Name Without an Exhibition, An Exhibition Without a Name. It focuses on memory as interpreted through their observations.

From 23 November, visitors to the Krupa Art Foundation’s gallery will encounter iconic works from the Krupa Collection, including pieces by pop art legend Andy Warhol, contemporary realist painter Wilhelm Sasnal, and Polish-Roma artist Małgorzata Mirga-Tas, recently celebrated in a solo show at the Tate Museum. The visitors are invited to discover the unexpected connections between these works that the children have so insightfully uncovered.

Artists: Billie Clarken, Tony Cragg, Tadeusz Dominik, Grzegorz Drozd, Martina Drozd-Smutna, Edward Dwurnik, Pola Dwurnik, Agata Ingarden, Edward Krasiński, Kornel Leśniak, Marie Lukáčová, Jarosław Modzelewski, Małgorzata Mirga-Tas, Karol Palczak, Włodzimierz Pawlak, Teresa Pągowska, Cyryl Polaczek, Michał Puszczyński, Filip Rybkowski, Wilhelm Sasnal, Łukasz Stokłosa, Jan Tarasin, Tomasz Tatarczyk, Andy Warhol, Rafał Wilk, Ryszard Winiarski, Marcin Zawicki

“Clues” is an installment at the Krupa Art Foundation gallery that invites visitors to play with the idea of breaking the world down into smaller parts to understand how we create our own reality.

The curators highlight the challenge of capturing the constant intersection and merging of our physical reality with the virtual world. They invite the audience to track the connections between the tangible and the virtual, prompting reflection on how we shape and perceive our reality. The title “Clues” refers to three parallel exhibitions, each starting from the relationships between maps, space, and memory.

  • “A Name Without an Exhibition, an Exhibition Without a Name” – An exhibition from the collection of Sylwia and Piotr Krupa, curated by children (the list of curators is at the end of the entry)
  • “My Memory Isn’t Mine” – Curator: Natalia Barczyńska
  • “The Coordinates” – Curator: Monika Łuszpak-Skiba

The exhibition My Memory Isn’t Mine delves into the complex interplay between human memory and technology, examining the boundaries between organic and mechanical forms of remembering. The featured artists invite viewers to reflect on how memories and knowledge are stored, processed, and passed down through generations, affecting our identities and reshaping our understanding of family and social connections. The works raise questions about information transmission, the inheritance of trauma, and the fluid definitions of geographic and ideological belonging.

As humanity searches for enduring methods of content preservation, we encounter diverse solutions – from ancient practices like stone carving to futuristic innovations such as quartz glass, DNA encoding, and time capsules. A significant part of the exhibition focuses on land and landscape as traditional carriers of memory. It reflects on transformations caused by colonial practices and the resilience of nature in the face of invasive human actions. Here, the land, a “living archive” of survival and transformation, becomes a metaphor for the timeless observer of human narratives, standing in contrast to the digital “cloud,” which, although seemingly intangible, leaves a physical footprint through server infrastructure and its environmental impact.

Beyond material forms and symbols of memory, the exhibition also contemplates its spiritual dimensions: non-linear time, mourning, cycles of death and rebirth, often represented through mythology-inspired motifs and futuristic hybrid visions. Using a variety of visual media, the exhibition explores the viewers’ relationship with history, underscoring the fragility and impermanence of narratives and the ever-shifting surfaces where contemporary memory is crafted, erased, and reimagined.
