Exhibitions

We cordially invites you to a temporary exhibition devoted to Adam Mickiewicz’s “Dziady”. The exhibition aims to look at the expansive universe of the work by presenting the enormous ethnographic, literary and theatrical potential inherent in Mickiewicz’s work. The idea behind the exhibition is the political context of the drama, or rather the role of its specific staging – “Dziady” directed by Kazimierz Dejmek and performed at Teatr Narodowy, discontinued in the early 1968, widely considered to be the catalyst for the March Events.

The first part of the main exhibition, called The "Pan Tadeusz" Manuscript, is a story which leads us into the Romantic era.

The exhibition Mission: Poland is the story of Poland's 20th century, based on the lives of Jan Nowak-Jeziorański and Władysław Bartoszewski. Their experiences form a key part of a generation's history, having both been raised in a Poland liberated after 123 years of partitions, and yet which in 1939 was once again forced to battle for its own freedom.

The “Pan Tadeusz Różewicz” exhibition is a tale about the life of one of the greatest Polish writers. The narrative is built with eleven dialogs between Tadeusz Różewicz and the world or between Różewicz’s work and other people.
