What regional exhibitions are there?
The Izba Regionalna “Stara Stolarnia” presents exhibits from the furnishings of a former Beskid house, as well as former farming equipment. The exhibition therefore includes household items and agricultural tools as distinct parts.
The Galerie Sztuki Regionalnej in Bystra displays sculptures and reverse-glass paintings by artists from Bystra. Reverse-glass painting is a painting technique on glass; alongside the sculptures, it forms a distinct artistic focus. The gallery and the Izba Regionalna thus offer different perspectives: exhibits from a former Beskid house and farming equipment on the one hand, and artworks by artists from Bystra on the other.
