16 years ago, when Marta Wojciechowska began "constructing" her glass games, it didn't cross her mind even for a moment that dominos, draughts, chess or jackstraws would ever be played online. That her game objects would be viewed like ancient pottery shards accidentally dug up during the construction of a motorway. That nobody would know how to play mikado, a dexterity-enhancing parlour game similar to jackstraws...

But, in Marta Wojciechowsk'a games it is by no means functionality that is the primary focus. It is the form and its beauty that is paramount.

Wojciechowska combines glass and wood with great assurance. Rustic wood and transparent or tarnished glass are not discrete mutually exclusive entities.They come together, creating a harmonious whole...

In "alcohol chess" the pieces are white and black shot glasses. After taking an opponent's piece, a player has to drink the contents of a shot glass filled with a high-proof alcoholic drink.

You are warmly invited to the Gallery on Lipowa 3 for a game of "alcoholic chess". After all, we have a Carnival on our hands!
