There is one word that immediately comes to one’s mind when looking at the sculptures by Witold Śliwiński: elegance. Those small glass forms are extremely sophisticated in their geometrical simplicity. Perfectly prepared, polished, composed with finesse. They are the proof of the Artist’s mastery of the technique.

Witold Śliwiński often combines glass with other materials, primarily metal and stone. He is experimenting continuously, setting the new, seemingly impassable limits. Glass, sometimes expressively bent, seems to lose its natural qualities: brittleness and fragility. It becomes a completely new medium.

Compilations is the first such large exhibition of the Artist’s works in Krakow. I invite everyone interested to see the results of the artistic experiments by Witold Śliwiński to visit the exposition.
