The Living Library
The preparation of a museum exhibition is akin to a journey of discovery, that – apart from the very joy of travelling – also aims to verify the existing maps and to create a new topography of the phenomena of interest to us. The exhibition at the MOCAK Reading Room is the outcome of just such an exploration of its environment. Living Library sets out to capture the seminal moments in the life of books, highlighting their fascinating co-existence with the transformations in Polish reality.

Next week, 23 April at 6 p.m., the MOCAK Library will host the opening of The Living Library exhibition. We would like to invite you to a tour of the exhibition and presentation of Waldemar Węgrzyn’s project, Electrolibrary at 5.30 p.m.
