  • For adults only

The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw offers adult visitors the possibility to participate in museum lessons – so popular among school groups. Despite the medical discoveries and the dynamic development of science, human body – seemingly familiar and close – remains unexplored. Perhaps this is the reason why it has for ages inspired artists, who have been scrutinizing it thoroughly. What is the role of the body in contemporary art? An object of inspiration, a medium or mere artistic matter? While analysing various manners to present the body, we are going to ponder on the status that an artist can attach to the body and on how he/she uses the body to communicate with the audience.
