Olga Micińska's 'To Pragma' at Starter Gallery in Warsaw

Polish artist Olga Micińska (born 1987 in Łódź) presents 'To Pragma' at Starter Gallery in Warsaw, running until June 6, 2016. The exhibition is divided into two parts, exploring the philosophical distinction between objects and things, as articulated by Italian philosopher Remo Bodei. The first room features abstract, unfinished sculptural works made from poor materials, arranged on a central platform like an inventory, inviting viewers to question their origins. The second room imbues these forms with clearer symbolic meanings, referencing real-world elements such as a flag, a primitive spear, or a crystal structure, thus enabling interpretative analysis. The show acts as a personal laboratory where Micińska experiments with materials and forms, emphasizing the affective and intellectual investment that transforms objects into 'things.'
