    The exhibition presents works by laureates of the honorary title of “Master of Artistic Crafts” awarded by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage.

    Artistic craftsmen, separated from techniques, creating applied art, were invited to participate in the exhibition.

    In 2023, the honorary title of “Master of Artistic Crafts” was awarded to eighteen artistic craftsmen, including Mrs Michalina Sieczko, an excellent dress-maker at the Polish Theatre named after Leon Schiller in Warsaw. The title of the master was awarded among others, for creating a historical dress for the performance of “Le Cid” after Corneille, presented at the exhibition, designed by Dorota Kołodyńska.
