An adventure with Constantin, or an educational trail to the exhibition “Brâncuși. Sculpting with Li

Did the famous sculptor keep a polar bear in his studio? Is the “Endless Column” really endless? And why are the Romanian artist's photographs not perfect? We invite the youngest art lovers to enter the extraordinary world of Constantin Brâncuși thanks to a specially prepared educational trail for children.

Little art lovers, it's time for an adventure with Constantin and his dog Polarie! Thanks to the educational trail prepared for the exhibition "Brâncuși. Sculpting with Light", you will be able to discover his life and art from a child's perspective. We will find out what mountains Brâncuși liked, take a look at his studio, and see how many interesting tools and animals there are. We will discover which ones he liked the most and see what shapes they took on in his sculptures. Puzzles, riddles, tasks and interesting facts from the artist's life will help us get to know this great artist and better understand his works.

We invite children and their caretakers to the MCK, where everyone can follow their own path. There is no room for boredom here – we guarantee good fun!
