White skies, white worlds – Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art

We invite you to a guided tour by Anna Grzymała on June 14th at 3:00 PM of the exhibition White Skies, White Worlds.

• Ania Grzymała’s latest series of paintings focuses on communities founded on exclusion and the normalisation of dangerous views and beliefs. Scenes from the daily lives of hooded figures, rendered in pastel tones, evoke a family photo album. However, tension emerges once we recognise their distinctive attire, which conjures the ghosts of bygone eras and a long history of racially motivated violence. The depicted figures are members of the Ku Klux Klan, shown in moments of play, rest or leisure. Upon entering the exhibition, the viewer is immersed in the atmosphere of an idyllic outdoor family gathering, which is further reinforced by the exhibition design complete with a picnic platform and an inflatable castle.
