10 hours agoHow Warsaw has become a new capital of collecting
“It was only about 20 years ago that collecting art really started here,” says Joanna Witek-Lipka, the director of Warsaw Gallery Weekend, now in its 16th year and which brings together some 50 galleries in late September. She continues: “Before that there was virtually no market.” Today, in contrast there are some major collectors: Jerzy Starak, for instance, who with his wife Anna have tapped Renzo Piano to renovate a 17th century palace near Warsaw to show their collection.
