- 🎷 Summer Stage in Żelazowa Wola 🎶 Classical music and jazz have been intertwined for decades, stimulating and complementing one another. Fryderyk Chopin’s compositions continue to prove an excellent source of inspiration for jazz musicians – and are drawn upon by both established artists and those of the youngest generation; by those who work within the traditional language of jazz, and by those who experiment at the intersection of many other musical styles and genres. Last year, we launched the Chopin jazz scene with concerts in the park surrounding Fryderyk Chopin’s Birthplace in Żelazowa Wola – performers included Leszek Możdżer and Adam Makowicz, Kuba Więcek and Artur Dutkiewicz. In the coming weeks, the series of jazz events returns, reaching out to an ever-wider range of generations and musical styles. ✨ Another artist we’ll hear on 15 August is Aga Derlak, who has released four albums of her own compositions to date and won the Fryderyk Award three times, in the categories of Jazz Debut of the Year, Artist of the Year and Album of the Year. 🎫 Tickets: http://tickets.nifc.pl

- 🌿 New temporary exhibition is open in Żelazowa Wola! The opening of the exhibition "George Sand (1804–1876). In a kaleidoscope of life and art" took place at the Fryderyk Chopin Birthplace and Park in Żelazowa Wola. The exhibition is dedicated to one of the most remarkable figures of 19th-century culture – the writer, artist, and long-time companion of Fryderyk Chopin. Among the guests attending the opening were Artur Szklener, Director of The Fryderyk Chopin Institute, Étienne de Poncins, Ambassador of France to Poland, Seweryn Kuter, Curator of the Museum, Urszula Król, representing the exhibition's curatorial team, representatives of the Centre des monuments nationaux, and Karolina Fandrejewska, exhibition designer. The exhibition presents a multifaceted portrait of George Sand as an outstanding writer, an independent and unconventional woman, and one of the leading figures of 19th-century European culture. It explores her life, artistic achievements, as well as social and political activism, placing their story within a broader artistic, social, and historical context. We invite you to visit the exhibition at the Fryderyk Chopin Birthplace and Park in Żelazowa Wola and discover the fascinating world of George Sand, one of the most inspiring personalities of her time. __ The exhibition has been organised under a partnership agreement between the Fryderyk Chopin Institute and the Centre des monuments nationaux. The exhibition is funded by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage. The exhibition is part of the celebrations marking the 100th anniversary of the Fryderyk Chopin International Piano Competition.

- 🌿 Our new temporary exhibition in Żelazowa Wola, “George Sand (1804–1876). In a kaleidoscope of life and art” opens this weekend! The aim of this exhibition is to show George Sand not just as a writer, which was her main occupation and source of income, but also as a versatile humanist who in many respects was ahead of her time. The adopted perspective focusses equally on her other passions and roles, in which she successfully found and fulfilled herself. 🎥 We invite you to watch a short video depicting the final preparations before the exhibition’s opening! ___ The exhibition has been organised under a partnership agreement between the Fryderyk Chopin Institute and the Centre des monuments nationaux. The exhibition is funded by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage. The exhibition is part of the celebrations marking the 100th anniversary of the Fryderyk Chopin International Piano Competition.

- 🖼️ A new series of museum displays in Żelazowa Wola complements the permanent exhibition and the programmes accompanying temporary exhibitions. As part of this initiative, selected objects from the museum’s collection—linked thematically to the narrative of the site—will be periodically made available to the public. The displays are held in the Music Room, in direct dialogue with the exhibition, offering an in-depth commentary on the history of the site. The first instalment of the series is devoted to the earliest known photographs of Żelazowa Wola, dating back to the 1860s. These objects, presented to the public for the first time, depict the manor house and its surroundings during the period when the estate was owned by Adam Towiański. Although they were created after Chopin’s death, they document a space that retained the character familiar to the composer. The photographs also capture elements of the landscape and layout of the former estate: the hornbeam avenue leading towards the Utrata River, farm buildings, and views of the village with its distinctive windmill. Together, they reflect the description of Żelazowa Wola found in Fryderyk Skarbek’s Memoirs, in which he emphasised the picturesque setting of this small village. The objects on display constitute a unique iconographic record, enabling the reconstruction of the appearance of a place where the lives of two closely connected families—the Chopins and the Skarbeks—intertwined. 👤 Featured in the video: Mariola Wojtkiewicz ___ ❗️ Last chance to see it! 21 March – 8 July 2026 Curator (The Fryderyk Chopin Museum): Dr Seweryn Kuter Display Curator: Mariola Wojtkiewicz Conservation: Diana Długosz-Jasińska, Dr Marta Zaborowska

- 🎂 George Sand’s 222nd birthday ✒️ “I came into the world on July 5, 1804, my father was playing the violin and my mother wore a pretty pink dress. It took but a minute. I at least had that portion of happiness that my Aunt Lucie predicted of not making my mother labor too long.” – Aurora Dudevant, née Dupin, known to the world by her literary pseudonym George Sand, describes the moment of her birth in “Story of My Life” – “Histoire de ma vie”– her multi-volume autobiography (the first French book edition from 1854–1855 contained twenty volumes). She was born in Paris, less than a month after her parents’ wedding – an obvious misalliance: her mother, Antoinette-Sophie-Victoire Delaborde, was a fowler’s daughter and a vivandière; her father, Maurice Dupin, came from an upper-class, semi-aristocratic family – on his mother’s side, he was a descendant of Marshal Maurice de Saxe of France, a count, and briefly even duke of Courland and Semigallia. George was always proud of her dual heritage and of being a legitimate child. Raised by her grandmother (Maurice died after a fall from a horse just four years later, and her mother agreed to leave her daughter to her mother-in-law), Aurora grew up on the family estate in Nohant. George was the most important woman in Fryderyk Chopin’s life. Their affair began in 1838 and lasted for nine years. As the composer’s illness progressed, Sand became his devoted caregiver, providing him with exceptional creative opportunities, particularly thanks to their stays together at her family estate in Nohant. It was during the summer months, at this home near Paris, that Fryderyk wrote his greatest masterpieces. 📚 Sand over the course of several decades penned dozens of novels – extremely popular in the 19th century – as well as stage plays and journalistic pieces. George became a symbol of women’s creative freedom and the rejection of convention, and today her work is once again the subject of increasing interest. We will be writing more about this exceptional artist on our blog this Friday, and on July 11, we invite you to the temporary exhibition ‘In a kaleidoscope of life and art. George Sand (1804–1876)" in Żelazowa Wola.
