Visit to Bartek Buczek's studio

8 November 2025, 12.00

We invite you to Bartek Buczek's studio – a place where the artist will reveal to participants the behind-the-scenes of the contemporary art world and the tools for navigating it: perseverance, diligence, connections and... gossip.  

"I will tell you a little about myself: an artist who has achieved moderate success in his own field and great success in that of others. The meeting will be an introduction to the realities of artistic production and exhibitions, as well as the logistics involved. I will explain the concept of an art handler, i.e. a person who handles art, but also deals with curators, artists, producers, as well as stress and the profession of an artist itself. I would like to give participants an insight into the backstage of the art world and provide them with powerful tools to navigate it: perseverance, diligence, connections and, above all, gossip," says Bartek Buczek, inviting visitors to his studio.

The exhibition “Brâncuși. Sculpting with Light” presents Bartek Buczek's work entitled “Bezczynne ręce to warsztat diabła”.
