About the Item

Doorless Bar, 2019 Oil on canvas 31 1/2 H x 47 1/4 W in. 80 H x 120 W cm The artwork was part of the solo show ONIRIX. ONIRIX is a project about how we remember and interpret our own dreams. Nine years ago the artist has three dreams in three different nights. He painted these dreams in three parts, each part having three sequences. The results are the nine paintings, every panting representing a scene from the three dreams. Each painting has attached a text written by the artist like in a screenplay. Scene V - The Doorless Bar - FM I entered the doorless bar and the small-looking exterior led into a spacious interior. The chairs laying upside-down on the round tables, the freshly clean floors and bar and the fact that the lights were off; all indicated that the bar had recently been closed. I started to look around for a telephone, but I soon got lost in wonder looking at the whole-wall fresco that perfectly depicted the view from outside. I could not understand how it was made, because as I stood in the doorway, looking at the fresco, then to the view outside and moving my sight in all directions, all the lines from the road, the mountains, everything aligned perfectly, every single time. While I was studying this phenomenon, I noticed a very small black dot, moving from the darkest part of the mural towards the other side of the painted sky, on the right. It was getting bigger as it was very slowly advancing like it was coming from somewhere behind those mountains. But that was even more puzzling because the dot appeared like it was painted on the wall as well. At one point the dot was big enough or near enough to be able to distinguish what it was. But what I saw was utterly perplexing: a white-winged half-sleeping lion was cruising through the icy painted sky.

  • Players - XXI Century, Contemporary Figurative Oil Painting, Interior, Family
    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...
