Katarzyna Roj’s “A Brief Vacation” project won the competition for the exhibition in the Adam Mickiewicz Institute-coordinated Polish Pavilion at the 24th Triennale Milano International Exhibition. The main theme of the exhibition is the concept of “a day sanatorium” that combines a number of different functions and caters to the needs of a multicultural community. The space of the Polish Pavilion will be transformed into an intimate chamber inspired by the tepidarium – a heated area that, in ancient Roman baths, was a space to relax and warm up the body. The facility, which will include a lounge area, will offer visitors the chance to experience some peace and tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of the Triennale, while simultaneously engaging all senses by the means of art.

Two major exhibitions of Polish contemporary art will open in Germany in early November 2024. On 6 November, “Change To Come” – a comprehensive exhibition devoted to engagement in Polish art over the past 80 years, will open at Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden. On 8 November, the first international exhibition devoted to the pioneer of Polish feminist art, Maria Pinińska-Bereś will open at the Galerie für Zeitgenössische Kunst in Leipzig.
