I am very happy because our exhibition The Real Within a New Generation of Polish Realism in New York has been reviewed by David Ebony, a renowned art critic, author of numerous art monographs, and a lecturer in art and culture seminars at the New York Academy of Art.

David Ebony is a respected contributor to Art in America and Artsy, a book author, and a curator of exhibitions. He has written about the greatest contemporary artists and collaborated with organizations such as The Brooklyn Rail, Sotheby’s, and institutions in both the USA and Europe. His review of The Real Within was published as part of the exhibition at the Kosciuszko Foundation and analyzes the works of eight Polish realist artists. My painting was also included in this selection!

I am attaching the full text, written in English, in the photos. Here is a translated excerpt from the review, focusing on one of my exhibited paintings:

"In what initially appears to be a pure landscape, Jakub Podlodowski adds an unexpected element of unease. An Evening by the River depicts a small pond surrounded by vegetation, but its water surface, full of mysterious twilight reflections, suggests an unsettling and unfathomable depth."

I would like to thank you for the support and curator Daria Solar for the invitation to participate in this event!
