Grażyna Kulczyk, while still a law student, began amassing her private collection, focusing initially on Polish art. Parallel to her entrepreneurial ventures in the automotive and development sectors, notably her flagship project, the Old Brewery—a transformed 8-hectare postindustrial complex into a renowned retail and cultural center—she expanded her collection to include international art. This expansion provided Polish audiences with exposure to works by globally acclaimed artists. For Kulczyk, collecting art transcends personal enjoyment; it is a public service mission aimed at redefining art history and incorporating matrilineal perspectives into traditionally male-dominated narratives. This mission is fulfilled through a combination of collecting, academic research, and public exhibitions. Since the early 2000s, her Kulczyk Foundation, later evolving into the Art Stations Foundation, has supported over 1,500 cultural projects. This culminated in the establishment of the Muzeum Susch in the Swiss Alps, a prominent institution dedicated to researching and exhibiting avant-garde post-war female artists who have been historically overlooked or misinterpreted.”
