"Surrealism. Other Myths" at the National Museum in Warsaw

The Warsaw Tourist Organization had the pleasure of inviting its members to a special tour of the exhibition "Surrealism. Other Myths" at the National Museum in Warsaw. The event took place on June 13 and brought together art lovers who had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich world of surrealism.

Organized to mark the centenary of André Breton's Manifesto of Surrealism, this exhibition explores Surrealism not as a historical movement limited by time and geography, but as a global, inclusive, and diverse phenomenon. From the works of the interwar period to the founders of the Phases movement in the 1950s, the exhibition offers a new perspective on Surrealism.

WOT members had the opportunity to admire the works of over sixty artists, including well-known figures such as Marek Włodarski (Henryk Streng) and Max Ernst, as well as lesser-known Polish artists. The presented works, made in techniques typical of surrealism such as decalcomania or frottage, as well as surrealist objects and a rich selection of photographs, allowed participants to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of this complex movement.

Thanks to cooperation with many institutions, both national and international, the exhibition at the National Museum in Warsaw is a unique place of encounters with art that exceeds traditional frames of perception. The Warsaw Tourism Organization is proud to support such events, which promote the cultural richness of our city and enable the exchange of international experiences in the field of art.
