ING Polish Art Foundation. Collection at Zacheta Warsaw
The show treats the ING Polish Art collection as more than a private archive: it represents a public legacy, thanks to a stipulation that if the Foundation ended, its collection would pass to Zachęta – making it part of shared cultural heritage.
The exhibition highlights that heritage is not static. As time passes, meanings, interpretations, and social contexts shift – thereby transforming what “heritage” is. Moving Image underlines that the value of a collection lies not only in its objects, but in their transmission, reinterpretation, and relation to public life.
Works from the ING Polish Art Foundation’s put the collection into dialogue with broader cultural context, and prompting reflection about ownership, institutional power, and public meaning of art.
ING Polish Art features works by a wide range of contemporary Polish artists – from more established names to younger generation creators. Artists represented include (among many others) Zbigniew Libera, Małgorzata Mirga‑Tas, Rafał Milach, Nicolas Grospierre — and younger artists such as Zuzanna Bartoszek, Ant Łakomsk or Veronika Hapchenko.
In total, the exhibition brings together around 70 works by 30+ artists.
