She's Touching Her Forehead, She Can Feel It Burning, She Probably Has a Fever

We invite you to the opening of the exhibition She's Touching Her Forehead, She Can Feel It Burning, She Probably Has a Fever on June 19th at 7:00 PM.
Catastrophe does not arrive suddenly; it approaches slowly, gradually permeating the fabric of everyday life. Karolina Breguła dissects our behaviours under pressure and in the face of threat. In an age of cognitive warfare, amid overlapping and mutually reinforcing crises – climatic, political and humanitarian – the exhibition becomes a suggestive portrait of a society gripped by fear and division.
- Karolina Breguła’s works are a sombre collective portrait of a society seized by fear and division. “I’m touching my forehead, I can feel it burning, I probably have a fever,” says one of the protagonists of The Storm, and her words sound like a diagnosis of the inflammatory state in which communities find themselves in the face of crises and permanent tension.
Karolina Breguła’s exhibition is part of a series of solo presentations at Gallery 1, adjacent to the Collection Study Magazine. This space combines the function of a collection storage facility with a curatorial and educational programme. The series presents artists whose works are held in the Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art collection.
Karolina Breguła is a visual artist working across installation and socially engaged practice. She creates stories about buildings, architecture and urban spaces, as well as the communities that use them, treating these as fields for anthropological and sociological observation.
- Her works have been presented in many museums and galleries around the world, including the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Taipei, the Tokyo Photographic Art Museum in Japan, the Jewish Museum in New York, and Zachęta – National Gallery of Art in Warsaw, as well as at international art festivals such as the Venice Biennale and the Singapore Biennale. She has received many awards, including the Views Deutsche Bank Foundation Award, the EMAF Festival Award and the Golden Claw at the Gdynia Film Festival.
