Katharina Marszewski is interested in the process of artistic production and its aesthetic aspect. She uses objects and props which generate a grid of loose associations, building both semantic and aesthetic relations. Her project for Duties and Pleasures was inspired by the figure of Wanda Telakowska, the founder of the Institute for the Supervision of Aesthetics in Production and the founder of the Institute of Industrial Design and the collection of the Centre of Modern Design. During her residency at the Museum of Interiors in Otwock Wielki, together with a group of her collaborators, the artist has made a spatial structure which is a combination of installation, sculptures, and works on paper presented in the ballroom of the Bieliński palace and serving as a stage set for pieces of furniture she had selected from the neighbouring building. A monologue read out by an actress in the courtyard in front of the storage serves as an introduction to her work. With support and help of Kasia Redzisz, Magda Materna, Emma Knaflewska, Miroslaw Balla, Pan Mirek
