„zROZUMieć papier” – dialogue of matter, thoughts and emotions. Report from the vernissage of the exhibition by Agnieszka Andruszkiewicz

With the start of the new year, the Museum of Papermaking in Duszniki-Zdrój opened a temporary exhibition entitled ‘zROZUMieć papier’ (Understanding Paper). It presents the work of Agnieszka Andruszkiewicz, an artist and designer who percieves paper not only as a material, but also as a full-fledged partner in the creative process. The event attracted numerous guests and officially opened an exhibition devoted to reflections on the significance of paper in contemporary art.

The exhibition presents spatial objects made of corrugated cardboard, subtle works made of tobacco tissue paper, and works created by the use of handmade paper. The diversity of materials and forms allows us to appreciate the richness of paper's properties - from its softness and transparency to its structural rigidity and geometric precision. The exhibition presents paper as an ambiguous material, susceptible to transformation and capable of generating new meanings.

Agnieszka Andruszkiewicz, a graduate of the Institute of Papermaking and Printing at the University of Technology Łódź and holds a PhD degree of Design Arts at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow. She consistently explores the possibilities of paper, using handmade, unbleached and paraffin-coated paper as well as tissue paper, tobacco paper, cardboard and corrugated cardboard. As the artist emphasises, every paper product and semi-finished product in her hands generates new creative qualities, and the process of creating her works is based on a dialogue with the selected type of paper, finally leading to the discovery of its hidden potential.

The exhibition ‘zROZUMieć papier’ (Understanding Paper) also encourages reflection on the very essence of paper - a material that is light, thin and fragile, yet indispensable in the process of recording thoughts, preserving memory and transmitting values. In fact, paper only begins to fully exist in relation with human beings: it is through paper that an idea leaves the mind and becomes reality. Although it is easy to destroy, it is to paper that we entrust what is most important.

The exhibition takes on special significance in the context of the place where it is presented. The Museum of Papermaking in Duszniki-Zdrój, located in a historic paper mill, has for years been a space for tradition, craftsmanship and contemporary artistic exploration.

More Information

In the fragile moment just before something falls apart, time seems to change shape, turning to dust, slipping into memory, and moving onward.
This exhibition takes as its starting point the cycles of nature and its constant transformation. It traces shifts from stability to disintegration, from manual to digital processes, from darkness to light.

The viewer is invited into a spatial installation of paper, textiles and video, where each work carries traces of its own decomposition. Intricate jacquard fabrics with organic patterns are draped in layers alongside delicate paper objects shaped like plants. In the brightest openings, what has sprouted begins to break down; in the darkest corners, something new takes root. And so everything begins again. Nothing disappears, everything remains.

More Information

Fungi belong to the oldest and at the same time most hidden actors of life on Earth. The special exhibition FUNGA invites you to rediscover this independent kingdom – beyond the known fruiting bodies and far beyond the role of edible mushrooms.

The exhibition shows how fungi as mycelial networks control ecological cycles, build soils and enable symbioses without which life on land would hardly be conceivable. It traces from the ancient origins of fungi over their key role in nature and evolution to their close relationship with humans – for example in the skin and gut microbiome.

In addition to scientific insights, FUNGA also opens cultural perspectives: fungi as medicinal remedies, as part of rituals and myths, and as defining motifs in art and pop culture. Current research approaches on sustainable materials and biotechnological applications finally build the bridge into the future.

On display are various Mykobütten - fungi-paper and dyed fibers with fungus such as wool and silk.

More Information

Tanja Major invites us to re-perceive the mushroom world as a creative, ecological and aesthetic force – as a resonance space in which matter, life and ideas are interwoven.

The Mykobütten exhibition opens up a universe in which mushrooms are not just raw materials, but active co-creators. The works of the artist Tanja Major are created from handmade paper, from 100% mushrooms – a process that blends nature and art into a living material. Each surface bears traces of biological dynamics, each structure tells of transformation, cycles, and the close connection between humans and nature. The exhibition invites visitors to immerse themselves in this symbiotic world and rediscover the potential of the fungal world as a creative and ecological force.

More Information

Paper, as an everyday product, is manufactured on large paper machines and consumed in massive quantities. Papermaking by hand seems like a thing of the past. Yet this craft survives, especially for artistic purposes, as demonstrated by John Gerard. For almost 40 years, the US-born artist has been creating handmade papers in his unique paper workshop.

The temporary exhibition "PAPER – Handmade Papers by John Gerard" at the Alte Dombach Paper Mill in Bergisch Gladbach offers insights into his work. The exhibition is complemented by an accompanying program and a small papermaking workshop where visitors can try their hand at papermaking.

More Information

For the first time, a comprehensive retrospective is showcasing large parts of the complete works of Marburg artist Katharina N. Eitel, who passed away ten years ago at the age of 70. Katharina N. Eitel was a co-founding member of IAPMA.

During her more than forty years as an artist, Katharina Natalie Eitel gained public recognition with her highly acclaimed large-scale paper installations from the ‘zeithaut’series in museums, a church and other exhibition venues, but she rarely exhibited individual paintings or drawings, her objects and experimental paper art.

On display will be a selection of her costumes created in London,
large-format sketchbooks, handmade papers with drawings and paintings, paper artworks, marbled pictures, photographs and the results of her artistic exploration of central themes such as dialogue, vessels, landscape, the past and the body.

More Information

Letters from Denmark have been used to make hundreds of paper daisies for a new artwork commemorating the end of the Danish national postal service.
 
At the end of 2025, PostNord stopped delivering letters and removed all the post boxes. Gillian Taylor invited people in Denmark to send one last letter. They wrote about memories of meaningful letters received in the past, and shared their thoughts on PostNord’s decision to end letter deliveries, reflecting on the effort and time taken to write a letter by hand.
 
Copies of the letters, their envelopes and contents have been used to create a hanging installation with hundreds of paper daisies. The daisy is the national flower of Denmark as well as a symbol of new beginnings and hope – offering an optimistic note, despite the sad end of the handwritten letter.
 
An accompanying soundscape has been specially composed by Laura Reid and uses a French horn, taking inspiration from the post horn which appeared on Denmark’s post boxes.
