Polish sculpture from the 19th to the middle of the 20th century

The lecture will be devoted to the collection of Polish sculpture from the 19th century to 1945 from the collections of the National Museum in Poznań. The pretext for the meeting is the latest publication by Dr. Arkadiusz Krawczyk, which is a catalogue of collections. During the lecture, the author will talk about the process of creation of the book and the results of the research carried out, introducing modern methods of studying sculpture, the way of creating and shaping the museum collection, as well as the history of the exposition of works before the Second World War and after its end. It will also take up the topic of the most important artists of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, indicating which artists we consider to be the leading representatives of Polish sculpture of that period and what factors determined their place in its history.
