Episode Synopsis
Julia Keilowa designed everyday objects in the Art Déco style. Her artistic education and sculptural experience allowed her to develop her own distinctive style. Thanks to the popularity of plating, a technique of covering non-precious metal products with a thin layer of silver or gold, her designs entered the salons of the Second Republic of Poland, earning Keilowa fame and recognition. Attempts to imitate her style were made as early as the 1930s, there were even forgeries of her products, which testifies to the significance of Keilowa’s design and to her status. Today, Keilowa’s metalwork belongs to the canon of masterpieces of Polish design, and her works are sought after in the collectors’ market as coveted additions to both public and private art collections.Julia Keilowa. Designer exhibition is the most extensive presentation of her work to date, encompassing handcrafted unique items and sculptural works.Find out more about the exhibition: https://muzeumwarszawy.pl/en/wystawa/julia-keilowa-designer/
