This style requires artists to have remarkable skills as well as fantasy, creativity and panache. It is a particularly difficult artistic path to choose, as it debunks all imperfection, is intolerant to banality, clichés and above all mediocrity. The best artists represent the world’ top class and we provide them with an opportunity to exhibit in Europe – says Katarzyna Bator, co-founder of Bator Art Gallery and one of initiators of “MAGICAL DREAMS” cyclical exhibition.

The City Gallery in Wrocław and Bator Art Gallery invite to a fascinating mystical journey to the land of magic, fairy tales and mysterious symbolism. In the world where aesthetic values often yield to the need of originality and fantasy loses out to desire to shock the recipient, the viewers get a chance to see painting and sculptural pieces which are both a diligent record of artistic visions extracted from the deepest corners of imagination and a testimony of an unusual artistic craft and skills honed for years.
