Warsaw Gallery Weekend (WGW) is an event we look forward to all year. During the last weekend of September (28th of September to 1st of October), visitors can view contemporary art exhibitions at 37 independent galleries scattered around Warsaw. We talk to the person who knows all about WGW. Joanna Witek-Lipka, director of WGW, has been running the event for the past five years.

"I get inspiration for painting as if I’d like to eat what I see. The physicality of the picture is important, as is the fact that the outcome of my work is an object" says Magdalena Karpińska, the heroine of the first episode of "Behind the Art" video, produced by PURO.

For years, Prague has been a fashionable destination for a city break or a weekend trip. The city is back on its feet after the lockdowns and the phases of the pandemic. The tourists come for the beautiful architecture (Gothic and Baroque churches, modernist buildings), the colorful history, cuisine, the beer-brewing tradition, and the locals’ laid-back attitude. For some time now we have seen a growing interest in Czechia, and in Prague in particular, among contemporary art lovers. The local art scene, art institutions, and private galleries are vibrant and quite active, and the city itself is buzzing with visual arts and electronic music.

While she is perceived by many as an artist, she prefers not to use this term. By default, she prefers structure and finds freedom through it. A paradox. The functionality and durability of objects are for her the most interesting aspects, but the greatest value stems from the relationships established through work.

If you don’t drink coffee unless it’s a “damn fine cup of coffee” – as agent Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks used to say – you’re lucky to be in Poznań where fine cups of coffee are in plenty. We’re taking a closer look at coffee houses where the heavenly dark liquid is served in a myriad of versions–traditional, experimental, hot, cold, black, gold–and where flavor meets friendly atmosphere. Read on to find out where to find a boost of energy in Poznań!

Copenhagen is a city where everyone finds something to please them. It is fragrant with cardamon buns, coffee, and the sea. It is famed for its starred restaurants, minimalist design and architecture, as well as its museums with impressive art collections from around the world. It is also a city designed for people: it has bike paths, beaches right downtown, and network of picturesque canals. All this makes Copenhagen is special place, always ready to be rediscovered.

Łódź is the city of contrasts where raw, post-industrial buildings are being repurposed to serve art and culture. Here, new initiatives appear daily in an attempt to revamp the industrial climate of the city and attract fashion, design, and film aficionados. Don’t you think there must have been a solid reason why Łódź placed second in Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2019? This city is the place to be!

A scorching summer morning. We joined Maria Oblicka – an artist, designer, and the creator of the Łyko label – on a stroll through her favorite parts of Warsaw.

Budapest is a pearl of the old Hapsburg Empire, a monumental and beautiful city, with grand buildings situated on the Danube. Everyone who visits the capital of Hungary takes a dip in the famed Gellért Thermal Baths, climbs Castle Hill, and strolls across the chain bridge.

Today’s walk is going to be nostalgic. On our search for friendly city spirits, we will snatch a glimpse at peculiar shop windows and peek inside a permanently closed hair salon, shedding tears for the time long gone. At the end of the walk, to assuage the feeling of nostalgia, we will taste the best cake in town!

I am lucky to live close to the river; and when I say close, I mean it: 167 steps total. Yes, I've done my counting! I see the Vistula every day and enjoy the view. Whenever I look at the stream I see the past with a beach sprawling below the Wawel Hill, people wearing retro swimsuits, beach volleyball players enjoying the game, and giggling kids dabbling in water. Perhaps the day will come when I can spread my blanket on the sand and put my feet in the crystal clear river.
