State Art Gallery in Sopot | pl. Zdrojowy 2 | Sopot
Until 16.08.2026
If you’re in Sopot during the summer holidays, be sure to visit the State Art Gallery in Sopot () currently hosting two exhibitions by our artists – Marcin Janusz (Marcin Janusz) and Xawery Wolski (Xawery Wolski). „Storm”, an exhibition by Marcin Janusz, tells the story of a world in a state of “in-between” – one that constantly losesand regains its balance, one that is in perpetual motion. The artist presents the world in a fairy-tale-like manner, rooted in myth and imagination, inviting viewers into their ownreflections.
The build-up of tension, a quiet unease without words, movement between disintegration and renewal – thisprocess becomes a metaphor for contemporary reality: migration, emotions, climate anxiety, but also encounter, exchange, and rebirth. Nature here is not merely a backdropor an atmospheric phenomenon – it is an active force, co-creating the inner and outer landscape of contemporaryhumanity.
The artist guides the viewer through three realms – water, ice, and desert heat – revealing different rhythms of loss and transformation. Boldly experimenting with materials such as sugar, resin, and earth, he creates works that are not onlyseen but experienced through all the senses. It is anexperience of the “here and now,” rooted in the past and open to a future we do not yet know.
