{Live}

On Wednesday, 3 September 2025, at 6 p.m., we invite you to another meeting in the {Live} series. Our guest will be painter and performer Cezary Bodzianowski. In his practice he frequently engages in a subtle play with reality, carried out through irony, absurdity, and gestures that at once establish meaning and gently undermine it.
-
Bodzianowski studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Antwerp. He is a winner of the Polityka Passport Award and author of over a thousand “events” – ephemeral interventions in public and private space that transform everyday life into a personal theatre of paradoxes. He participated in the exhibition Rzeczywiście, młodzi są realistami [Indeed, Young People Are Realists] at the Centre for Contemporary Art Ujazdowski Castle in 2002.

{Live}
-
Every week, we meet live with artists to talk about art: creative processes, works, and current experiences.
- We host both artists who have previously taken part in Ujazdowski Castle’s programme and those making their debut. In this series, we would like to focus on individual approaches and artistic practices.
- Why take part?
- In times of tensions and crises, thinking and talking together about contemporary art – which responds to today’s challenges in unconventional ways – helps strengthen social resilience. Art is not only the object – just as important are the process, the thinking, the emotions, and the relationships that accompany it. The meetings offer a closer look at how art is created and, most importantly, who creates it.
