Curatorial context

The exhibition 'Z miłości. Przedmioty dla modnych i zakochanych' (For Love. Objects for the Fashionable and the In Love) delves into the passion of collecting and the intimate, often anonymous, histories inscribed in objects. Displayed in the Lanckoroński Gallery on the ground floor of the Royal Castle in Warsaw, the show features selected items from Hanna Szudzińska's collection. These historical objects, connected to love, romance, and marriage rituals, have accompanied their owners through ordinary and exceptional moments. A standing cabinet within the Single-Column Hall not only serves as an exhibition space but also establishes a context that highlights the love for objects: the acts of accumulating, preserving, and imbuing meaning into the small and the utilitarian. This exhibition encourages a careful look at items that carry the memory of gestures and emotions, while also appreciating the craftsmanship of artisans and the dedication of collectors who have ensured their survival for future generations. It serves as an invitation to recognize the traces of everyday life that can be found within the Royal Castle.
