Art of Storytelling. Book Discussion Club
Published at:15.03.2019
MOCAK Library has launched a Book Discussion Club with the motto Art of Storytelling.
Art of Storytelling is a series of sessions that revolve around books, which raise the theme of art. We aim at free, non-hierarchic discussion on contemporary culture, and hope to bring together a reader community. The sessions will be taking place regularly in MOCAK Library. In the course of three months, we will focus on books that are thematically related to the current exhibitions at the Museum: World War II – Drama, Symbol, Trauma and I Am a Wounded Man: Writer, Actor, Painter, about Wiesław Dymny.
