Men’s Matters at the “Men’s Thing” Auction – Art for Men
On September 27th, we have an extraordinary event lined up—one like never before at Art in House — the “Men’s Thing” Auction — art for men. In celebration of Men’s Day, our auction house will transform into a favorite spot for all men. Our offerings will include paintings and sculptures showcasing feminine and sports motifs, depictions of infrastructure and automotive themes, and even historical or political references.

The Attire and Physique of a True Gentleman – Oil and Acrylic Paintings at the Auction
At this testosterone-filled auction, you’ll also find numerous works celebrating the ideal male physique and the epitome of stylish, fashionable attire. Wojciech Pelc and Andrzej Wroński have captured the athletic male body, embodying the ancient pursuit of perfection. The men’s fashion corner makes an equally stunning appearance; Andrzej Kielar presents an elegant outfit with a surreal steampunk twist. Magdalena Karwowska reflects the auction reality, where dapper auctioneers in suits strive to sell works by Picasso and Haring at their best. The catalog also features men’s attire from bygone eras. In Dariusz Kaleta’s painting, gentlemen appear dressed in kontuszes and feathered caps reminiscent of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, while in a graphic work by an unknown artist, we can glimpse the fashion that prevailed in the military during the Napoleonic Wars.

Paintings Created Especially for Men – Cars, Motorcycles, Ships
One thing men undoubtedly love is all kinds of vehicles—vintage and modern, flashy inventions. Andrzej Sajewski delves into the world of out-of-date vehicles, depicting a departing freight train, while Izabela Bajda and Rafał Mruszczak showcase cars from the 1940s and 1950s. Modern, realistic vehicles can be seen in the works of Janusz Kulikowski, who offers us military helicopters and a battleship, Piotr Rembieliński, who captures a car speeding through the city at night, and Justyna Woźniak and Monika Bartkowiak-Zawadzka, who have painted motorcycles. In the realm of futurism, Artur Kolba presents an oil painting of a fantastical airship.
