The series of sculptures "Pavilion of Time Stopped in Color" and "Soft Reveals," which Alicja Bielawska created specifically for the Royal Łazienki Museum, consists of a sculpture in the garden and a sculpture in the temporary exhibition space. Both works were inspired by and created in the context of the Royal Łazienki Museum. The sculpture "Pavilion of Time Stopped in Color" was part of the garden space. The reference point for this openwork metal sculpture (235 x 150 x 150 cm, steel, paint) were garden gazebos and pavilions, as well as crinolines and birdcages. The oversized yellow and turquoise metal ribbons suspended from the fuchsia structure alluded to the flowing ribbons of the clothing of the park's former users. The second sculpture, "Soft Reveals," located inside the exhibition, took the form of a fabric-draped screen (182 x 270 x 70 cm, silk, cotton, steel, paint). Bielawska was inspired by the materiality and color of the decorative fabrics from the Palace on the Isle and the textile motifs in the sculpture and painting collection of the Royal Łazienki Museum. Collaborating with the conservation department of the Royal Łazienki Museum, she incorporated fabric from the royal dressing room at the Palace on the Water into her work. The draped fabrics conceal a ceramic tondo (37.5 x 37.5 x 4 cm, glazed ceramic) with an undulating surface, alluding to the theme of water, present in the history, gardens, and interior decorations of the Royal Łazienki Museum. Alicja Bielawska's works engage with the heritage of this historic site, introducing the language of contemporary art. The series of sculptures was created by Alicja Bielawska specifically for a temporary exhibition at the Royal Łazienki Museum, open from November 14, 2025, to March 15, 2026. The exhibition was the result of collaboration with researchers, artists, and the public. Designed to be experienced with a variety of senses, the exhibition offers a new perspective on the classicist monuments, the historic garden, and the history of the Royal Łazienki Park. One of the exhibition's media patrons is TVP Kultura.
