(...) we go over all past and current events, we review, recommend and announce what is to come. We try to present the whole range of our activity to demonstrate that LAZNIA is not only about exhibitions, but also about activities within public space, education, residencies, films and local initiatives. We are sewing our “Recznik” together with artists, curators and representatives of Nowy Port and Dolne Miasto are becoming voices for these districts (...) Within the exhibition-related space, it would be the text by Jasia Reichardt that outlines the horizon of life and output of Franciszka Themerson, together with the catalogue issued by LAZNIA creating a kind of framework. We allow young and energetic people to take the floor and review our exhibitions (...) We recall photos by Michal Szlaga, have a look inside KinoPort and publish an unusual letter from a reader – ewe encourage discussion.

We issue the free Ręcznik Magazine published by LAZNIA Centre for Contemporary Art twice a year. We write about our exhibitions, meetings and events. We raise topics related to Dolne Miasto and Nowy Port, where we work. Art critics, curators, artists and people associated with the artistic community are invited to cooperate with each issue. Ręcznik can be found and read in LAZNIA CCA in Dolne Miasto and Nowy Port as well as in selected cultural and art institutions, coffee houses and pubs throughout the Tri-City.
“Recznik” is not only warm and soft, it has rough spots as well.
Ręcznik means towel if you are wondering
