About the Item

This narrative figurative painting was painted during the height of the pandemic and depicts the artist's very small quarantine "bubble" at the time: his partner and their two roommates, all watching a movie in their living room. It reminds us of our desire for connection, arguably even more needed at the time when everyone was mandated to stay apart. The classical and virtuoso paint handling with which the subject matter is rendered seeks to establish a conversation with more traditional art, for example, Manet's Luncheon on the Grass is clearly referenced in the position of the two reclining figures in the foreground, yet the imagery is unmistakably contemporary. This painting is indicative of the artist's wish to portray quotidian queer imagery in domestic or outdoor settings and belongs to a larger body of work that deals in related subject matter. Unlike many other such works, however, it is one of the largest and more more ambitious works in terms of complexity and execution that the artist has created in that series to date.

    By Malgorzata Rozmarynowska
    Located in Warsaw, PL
    MALGORZATA ROZMARYNOWSKA (born in 1955) She studied in the Public High School of Plastic Arts at the Department of Painting and Graphic and graduated in 1981 in Professor Wladyslaw Jackiewicz atelier. Individual and collective exhibitions in Łódź, Sopot, Stockholm, Helsinki, New York, Brussels, Paris and Gdansk. “... once there was a beautiful world... And it was a world worth of being acquainted with. Every journey to beautiful worlds, every journey back to past or into non-existence is a hard and dangerous travel. From such an expedition one does not want or sometimes cannot come back. A guide is needed. Someone to guide us showing interesting things but also help in need. Malgorzata Rozmarynowska is that kind of helmsman. She sees everything. The world she welcomes us in is a strange, distressing and yet fascinating place. Jewish and non-Jewish towns that are long gone from our landscapes. And if they are, they ache like tooth gap or a soil burned out to the stone. It is a painful memory, which the mourning of clarinet of klezmer’s band...
