Opening Reception | Wacław Szpakowski: In Continuity

Wednesday, January 10, 2024, 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Free

An intergenerational encounter between Wacław Szpakowski (1883–1973) and Paul Pagk (b. 1962), two artists using the language of abstraction. Their practices envision a world in which everything—from our everyday walking routes to architecture, the sounds of music, and weather phenomena—is conceived as an intricate interplay of lines and rhythms.

The starting point for this dialogue is five drawings created by Wacław Szpakowski between 1924 and 1943. The Polish pioneer of geometric abstraction was born in Warsaw and moved to Riga with his family in 1897, where he pursued architecture at the Riga Polytechnical Institute (now Riga Technical University). Alongside his studies, Szpakowski meticulously documented his interests in carefully archived notebooks, which now serve as a key to a deeper understanding of his work. His notes reveal an interest in the typology of architectural styles, as well as reflections on ornamentation.

Drawings and sketches are interwoven with reports from his travels, spanning from neighboring cities such as Vilnius to as far as Arkhangelsk, and records of atmospheric phenomena, including cyclones and storms. Some pages contain reading lists including books on historic and folk architecture, archaeology, and engineering. Studies of clouds, atmospheric currents, and carbon dioxide were grounded in Szpakowski’s personal observations and readings from scientific journals. Wacław Szpakowski’s drawings also evoke comparisons to musical scores, and indeed, they served this purpose for the author himself, who would play them on the violin.
