1891 Garni Hotel is not only an elegant hotel in Krakow's Kazimierz district, but also a space where art is a natural part of everyday life. The interiors of the hotel and the Garnish Food & Wine restaurant regularly serve as a backdrop for painting exhibitions and meetings with artists, creating an atmosphere of dialogue between the guest, the place, and art.
Next event in preparation
The vernissages organized at 1891 Garni Hotel align with the idea of "living art" — present not only in galleries but also in places where daily life unfolds. This allows hotel guests to experience art in a relaxed and natural way during their stay, dinner, or an evening meeting over wine.
A collective exhibition of the women's creative group ArtTak, founded in 2022 from the need for joint action and promoting art in an open, inclusive environment. The artists presented painting and woven art, prepared especially for this exhibition. The common denominator of the exhibition was a reflection on the relationship between humans and nature — earth, elements, and the traces we leave in the world. Each artist interpreted this theme in her own individual way, creating a polyphonic story about responsibility, memory, and sensitivity.
The exhibition Woman about Women is a meeting with a woman seen through the eyes of the artist, her emotions, passion, and perspective on the surrounding world. The exhibition presents over 50 portrayals of women, depicted in diverse ways — from subtle, atmospheric portraits to expressive, dynamic forms. The works showcase the artist's fascinations as well as the evolution of her style and technique over the past twenty years. This is the first opportunity for the general public to see works that were previously unreleased or held in private collections.
The unique weekend exhibition Krakow Spleen gathered works by established artists as well as creators from the younger generation. In five exhibition rooms, different aesthetics and artistic attitudes came together, creating a multifaceted picture of contemporary art. The event was enriched by reflections from curators and art critics, and the spaces of the 1891 Garni Hotel once again proved that a hotel can become a fully-fledged place for artistic dialogue.
