Cities made of concrete and glass? Not anymore—now it's time for wood! Join us for a lecture from the Decades with Art series, during which we will consider the role of this material in contemporary design. We will talk about modern wooden buildings and how this building material works in the architecture of large cities. 

What are borders today and how do they affect language, memory, and everyday experience? How do we understand “borderland” today and what does this concept entail—only tension and conflict, or also the possibility of encounter and exchange? We will discuss this and other topics at the ICC with Prof. Urszula Glensk and Prof. Eryk Krasucki. The discussion will be moderated by Bartosz Sadulski, editor-in-chief of Herito magazine.

“MINI meetings with art” are a series of creative Sunday art workshops for children aged 4 to 10.

Can you find monuments on the Internet? And if so, how do they differ from those found in cities and towns? We will think about this together during the next MINI meetings with art, and then we will create our own “monument browser”. We will use various art techniques – we will cut, glue, and color! 

The International Cultural Centre cordially invites you to another meeting of the Central European Book Club – a space where books become a starting point for inspiring conversations, reflections on culture and history, and building a reading community. The topic of discussion will be Kristina Sabaliauskaitė's book “Peter's Empress”.

We invite you to a lecture from the series Mature for Art, devoted to architecture that is often underappreciated and overlooked. During the lecture, we will discuss the emotions evoked today by post-war modernism and its aesthetics, as well as its value and significance today.

Art and culture in a virtual version? We will talk about how cultural heritage and the memory of it are changing in the face of new technologies during the next lecture in the series Mature for Art.

During March's Mini-meetings with art, we will discover museum secrets! We will find out who the special agents are who protect museum collections and how they do it. We will also play detectives and think about why anyone would steal a painting that everyone recognizes. We will also create an art project related to museum secrets.
