EXHIBITIONS
We started our adventure traveling around Poland with part of our collection in 2024 in Bielsko-Biała, in the Bielska BWA Gallery, which has been famous for several decades as one of the leading ones in the country. We feel honored that it was in this gallery, and in the main hall on the ground floor, that we exhibited the works of artists from Central Australia.
The exhibition was visited by approximately 4,500 people (according to data from tickets sold). The exhibition catalog had over 1,500 downloads. According to BWA, this is a record attendance, which confirms very high interest, not only from the media.
We invite galleries and other exhibition venues in Europe and beyond to cooperate with us.

Full of meanings and intentions, using lines and dots, Aboriginal art tells about the mythical events and topography of a given region.
At the exhibition at Galeria Bielska BWA, we present 30 paintings by 15 artists from the collections of Julianna and Richard Bednarowicz, as well as several art artifacts, the so-called First Nations.
