The wealth of the contemporary art collection in the holdings of the National Museum in Warsaw precludes a cross-sectional display in the limited space allotted to the 20th-century Art Gallery. This is why we have decided to put on a series of displays entitled "Uncovering the Collection". It highlights the most precious specimens of Polish 1945–55 art in the collection of the National Museum in Warsaw, many of which belong to the basic canon of post-war Polish art.
