The unveiling of a new curtain designed by Stanisław Wyspiański

From the very beginning – since the creation of the Municipal Theatre in Krakow – Stanislaw Wyspiański was closely associated with this stage. But although one can always feel his presence as its spiritual patron, the building itself offers no tangible trace that could be connected with Wyspiański.


Thanks to the efforts of Krzysztof Głuchowski, the Theatre Director, and funds donated by the Małopolska Regional Development Agency, the Słowacki Theatre has created its second curtain based on the artist's 1892 sketch. The painting works were supervised by Tadeusz Bystrzak, the author of a copy of Nero's Torches and other works. The new Wyspiański curtain will be displayed interchangeably with the famous Henryk Siemiradzki curtain, which has existed for 124 years.
