How much for art?

dir. Andrzej Miękus / 2023 / Poland / 80min.

Film without English subtitles

“How Much for Art?” is a look at the Polish art market, which with the political transformation has changed from a marginal and obscure curio to a modern, professional machine.

Art, auctions, huge valuations of individual works, a market full of enigmas. The inaccessibility of the art world and its business mechanisms, incomprehensible to many, have always worked on the imagination. However, the incredible growth of interest in buying art in Poland over the past few means that the curtain of mysticism must be slowly falling. “How Much for Art?” is a look at the Polish art market, which with the political transformation has changed from a marginal and obscure curio to a modern, professional machine, opening for some artists of the youngest generation the gates of success inaccessible to their predecessors.
