A wave of exhibitions led by Polish women artists is set to sweep across global institutions in 2026, highlighting themes of feminism, digital capitalism, and cultural identity. Key upcoming shows include Karolina Wojtas’s first U.S. solo exhibition, "Made in Poland," at Light Work in Syracuse, and Agnieszka Kurant’s "RECURSION" at Marian Goodman Gallery in New York. These exhibitions span diverse media, from interactive soft sculptures and photography to complex installations involving bacteria and artificial intelligence.
This global programming signals a significant moment of international recognition for Polish female and queer artists, moving them from the periphery to the center of major contemporary art dialogues. By showcasing artists who blend traditional Polish motifs with cutting-edge technology and interdisciplinary practices, these institutions are acknowledging the pivotal role Polish women play in modern artistic revolutions and the global art market.
