About the exhibition
Wojciech Fangor. American Dream focuses on the period during which the painter created his most famous works – swirling circles and edgeless waves that shimmer in the viewer’s eye. The 1960s and 1970s were a time of intense experimentation for the artist with op-art, or optical art, which, through its immersive nature, influenced the viewer’s sense of sight and perception of space. Thanks to these works, viewers interact with the space, experiencing psychophysical sensations of movement and change.
Exhibition curator: Dorota Monkiewicz
Exhibition designer: Robert Rumas
Fangor and his American dream
All the paintings by Wojciech Fangor presented in the exhibition were created outside of Poland. For the duration of the exhibition, they have been loaned from private collections, both Polish and international. This is a unique opportunity to see them all in one space. Among the works are masterpieces that reflect the artist’s fascination with optical illusion and his attempts to influence human perception.
