The exhibition includes, among other things, a portrait of Xawery Dunikowski, painted by Jerzy Bereś at the turn of 1954 and 1955. At that time, he was still a student of Professor Dunikowski. The sculpture took part in the famous exhibition at the Arsenal in 1955, which was a demonstration of the departure from the socialist realism prevailing in previous years.
