The exhibition Oblivions, prepared to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Katyn massacre, constitutes an artistic testimony to the Soviet bestiality; the intentional, cold-blooded extermination of Polish elites, and the invaluable loss to the Polish culture.

The exhibition is organised as part of the Lost and Recovered series, which presents cultural goods plundered during World War II and recovered by Poland. Restitution activities carried out by the Division for Looted Art of the Department of Cultural Heritage at the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage in the recent years resulted in the return of numerous works of art to Polish cultural institutions, including sculptures and paintings by old masters and outstanding Polish artists.

As the 79th anniversary of the outbreak of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising draws near, we are presenting the works of two artists – outstanding sculptress Magdalena Gross and painter Gela Seksztajn – at Kordegarda, the Gallery of the National Centre for Culture.

As part of the series of exhibitions Lost / Recovered in Kordegarda, the Gallery of the National Cultural Centre, selected objects belonging to the most valuable Polish wartime losses recovered in recent years thanks to the efforts of the Ministry of Culture, National Heritage and Sports are shown.
