Workshop for adults in English
The Poetic Language of Space: Inspired by Ewa Partum

Zachęta – National Gallery of Art
entry 10 zł, sign up via form below

This conceptual poetry workshop takes inspiration from the work of Ewa Partum. After exploring the exhibition, participants will reflect on their physical surroundings and collect words inspired by overlooked corners of the museum. Back in the studio, they will transform these into calligrams—visual-textual compositions using handwritten text, cut-outs, or collage techniques. The workshop encourages a deeper connection between word, image, and space.

workshop led by: İlsu Kaya

    Spaces

    The exhibition titled Spaces is a unique opportunity to get immersed in a phenomenon that permanently changed the perception of art and its presence in our surroundings. By showing the work of the classics of Polish modern art – Magdalena Abakanowicz, Wojciech Fangor, Henryk Stażewski or Maria Pinińska-Bereś, to name but a few – the exhibition showcases the phenomenon of environment art, one of the most important and innovative trends in the second half of the 20th century.
