FAKRO is a partner of the exhibition Beksinski. Sculptures
FAKRO and art have formed an unexpected yet enduring alliance, as demonstrated by their collaboration in the “FAKRO – a window open to art” campaign. Their latest venture involves a cultural project called the “Beksiński. Sculptures” exhibition.
This exhibition showcases 14 captivating artworks from a series called “Heads,” which includes the monumental pieces Macbeth and Hamlet. It offers a fresh perspective on the artist’s work, presenting Zdzisław Beksiński as a sculptor. The exhibition is curated by Małgorzata and Marcin Gołębiewscy.
The name Beksiński is primarily associated with mind-boggling imagery and an intriguing life story. The extensive media coverage and the astonishing nature of Beksiński’s paintings have the potential to astonish even those unfamiliar with art in their daily lives.
The exhibition will be held at the Royal Gardens in Wawel from April 27 to October 1, 2023. -
