    Marysia Lewandowska: Histories Without a Voice

    Renowned Polish-born and London based artist Marysia Lewandowska has been the inaugural resident of the Jencks Foundation at The Cosmic House. Lewandowska, whose practice over the past 20 years has explored the public functions of archives, museums and exhibitions was invited to review the holdings of the Jencks archive at a crucial formative time for both the archive and the institution. Starting from the notion of the archive as an open-ended construction of contributions and interpretations, Lewandowska’s artistic research during her residency engaged with the legacy of Maggie Keswick Jencks as it is framed by the multiple histories of The Cosmic House: once a family home, a built manifesto of Post-Modernism and a meeting place for the movement’s main protagonists, and now a museum.

    ‘Marysia Lewandowska: Histories Without a Voice’, is a transcript of an artist talk at The Courtauld Institute of Art, London, 11 May 2023 presenting her research residency at The Cosmic House.

    In every new project, the most important part of the engagement with the institution is the process of invitation. It is in that moment when the approach has been made and the invitation issued that a future project begins to acquire its initial shape.

    Marysia Lewandowska, then you came back to London?

    I came back to London after the scholarship was over and the first person I met up with was Stuart Brisley, and he offered me my first teaching job at the Slade, teaching cultural studies and critical practice in theory. Michael Newman, now a professor at Goldsmiths, was interested in conceptual art and introduced me to artists that were working that way.

    What was it like to be an artist in London in 1985?

    People were saying, if you want to be an artist you go with your slides to galleries and you leave your slides and your CV. I thought, how humiliating! (Polish people have this incredible pride. Possibly it’s generations of resisting the establishment and also resisting the communist system.) I said, No, that is not wanted to do, but I can start recording conversations with other artists, predominantly women artists, women curators, women writers. I carried an analogue cassette tape recorder everywhere I went, to talks, to lectures, and did that for six years solidly. Then my daughter was born, so in 1989 I became a mother. With different time availability I wasn’t going out so much, so I started the second part of my interest in conversation as a medium, exploring what you can do with it as an artist an
