Young, lesser known art in Poland
It would seem that with the invention of photography in 1839, the architectural theme resulting from the need for realistic reproduction of the perspective of buildings on canvas will sink into oblivion. Meanwhile, while the photographs took over the role of faithful documents of reality, painting began formal experiments which consisted in the presentation of an individualised perception of the urban landscape by artists. It turns out that the experiments in the area of the presentation of a spatial solid on the plane of canvas continue to this day, yielding surprisingly interesting results.

IWONA GABRYŚ
Born in 1988 in Puławy, Iwona Gabryś received her Master's degree in graphic design at the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in 2014. In the same year, the artist also defended an annex in painting, carried out under the supervision of Marek Mazanowski, PhD. In 2016, Gabryś received a honorary distinction in the competition for Grand Prix of the Franciszka Eibisch Foundation. In her work, the artist focuses on human issues, as well as the social and cultural space in which people must function every day. She dresses her expression in a metaphorical and visual language of geometric forms. The shapes prevailing in her work are simple solids, arranged in various configurations within the canvas and explicitly referring to architectural compositions. Chaotic arrangements of levitating cubes and cuboids enclosed in central composition function on the painter's canvases as a symbol of man's attempts to organise the surrounding reality. An important element of the painter's art is the effect of the spatial dimension, obtained by combining various painting and drawing techniques. The colours of the artist's paintings are within a narrow palette of cool shades, dominated by greys and blues, here and there softened by warm colours of ochre. (...)
