Tilda Swinton – Ongoing at our headquarters


Together with the Malta Festival and the Andrzej Wajda Centre for Film Culture, we
invite the Polish public to the exhibition Tilda Swinton – Ongoing. It will be open to
visitors from 18 September 2026 to 17 January 2027 at our venue.

On the left side, a large, pink inscription reading "TILDA SWINTON" is obscured by the white word "ongoing" and the "MALTA FESTIVAL presents exhibition" logo. On the right side, event details appear: date: September 18, 2026–January 17, 2027, venue: "Institute of Creative Industries | Warsaw," and information about ticket sales on eventim.pl.

An extraordinary project in industrial space

This is the first project of its kind and on this scale to be held in the South Hall at IPK headquarters that has not previously been open to the public. ‘Tilda Swinton – Ongoing’ is the most personal project by a unique figure in contemporary cinema, namely the Scottish actress, Oscar winner, performer and artist. The exhibition, curated by Amsterdam’s Eye Filmmuseum in close collaboration with Tilda Swinton, is coming to Poland for the first time.

The exhibition will feature works by artists who have collaborated with Tilda Swinton over the years on films, performances and art projects: Pedro Almodóvar, Luca Guadagnino, Joanna Hogg, Derek Jarman, Jim Jarmusch, Olivier Saillard, Tim Walker and Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Each brings their own artistic language to the table, creating a polyphonic narrative about cinema, art and collaboration.

Furthermore, whilst the Amsterdam and subsequent Athens editions of the exhibition were held in year-round exhibition venues, it will be hosted here in the post-industrial space of the former Polish Press Agency printing works. The exhibition layout was designed by the multi-award-winning architect Maciej Siuda.

The organiser of the ‘Tilda Swinton – Ongoing’ exhibition is the Malta Festival, one of the most interesting cultural festivals in Poland under the patronage of Dominika Kulczyk.
