Description
Katarzyna Kobro was one of the most distinguished Polish avant-garde sculptors, a prominent representative of the Constructivist movement in Poland and a co-founder of the avant-garde artist group Blok. She was a pioneer of innovative multi-dimensional abstract sculpture, rejecting the idea of pure aesthetics and working towards the assimilation of spatial rhythm and scientific approaches into visual art. Katarzyna Kobro’s works have been part of many exhibitions and collections at home and abroad, such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York, USA; Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid, Spain; Centre Pompidou, Paris, France; Moderna Museet, Malmö, Sweden; Whitechapel Gallery, London, UK; Henry Moore Foundation, Leeds, UK; Zachęta National Art Gallery, Warsaw, Poland; Muzeum Sztuki, Łodź, Poland; Kunstmuseum, Haag, Netherlands; Musee d'Ixelles, Brussels, Belgium; Los Angeles County Museum of Art, USA; CSW Ujazdowski Castle, Warsaw, Poland; Starak Family Foundation, Warsaw, Poland, and many others.
