On Willingness presents a body of paintings, reliefs, and sculptural works by Igor Dobrowolski that examine the tension between human fragility and the drive to persist.

Marking a significant moment in his practice, the exhibition signals Dobrowolski’s decisive transition from figuration toward abstraction; not as departure, but as expansion. The human condition, once rendered through the body, now emerges through material itself: trembling accumulations of pigment, scarred surfaces, ruptured textures, and luminous, weighty forms.

Across large-scale canvases and sculptural works that appear both eroded and radiant, fracture becomes structure in formation. Dobrowolski treats weakness not as something to conceal, but as a generative force. His reflective reliefs function almost as thresholds, implicating the viewer in a confrontation with vulnerability and endurance. Developed within a climate of collective instability and psychological strain, the exhibition feels particularly urgent. Rather than offering spectacle, Dobrowolski positions persistence as a conscious act: a willingness to remain present within uncertainty. In tracing this evolution from the figurative to the abstract, On Willingness reveals the complexity and elasticity of Dobrowolski’s practice. It underscores an artist unafraid of transformation, capable of translating existential inquiry into materially rigorous, luminous form. Here, fragility becomes a catalyst for reinvention. And abstraction becomes the space where resilience takes shape.
