Aleksander Kotsis was one of the most important artists working in Polish Realism. The exhibition at the Szołayski Tenement House branch of the National Museum in Krakow, prepared as part of the celebrations of the 185th anniversary of the artist’s birth, comprises over 120 oil paintings and around 70 watercolours, drawings and sketches.

The exhibition at the House Under the Cross branch of the Museum of Krakow presents a synthesised history of Stanisław Wyspiański’s acclaimed “The Wedding” and its reception, and reflects on how Poles see themselves reflected in the drama.

All the tapestries remaining of the original collection of King Sigismund Augustus are returning to Wawel Castle for the next six months. Today numbering 135 arrases, the collection goes on display for the first time in over 500 years. Many of the tapestries will be shown to the public for the first time.

Exhibition dedicated to Krzysztof Penderecki held a year after his passing, providing an insight into how the composer thought about music and the garden he established in Lusławice.

The aim of the new permanent exhibition at the Arsenal of the Princes Czartoryski Museum (branch of the National Museum in Krakow) is to present a comprehensive review of ancient cultures. The exhibition is built around a collection assembled by Prince Władysław Czartoryski during the second half of the 19th century.

The exhibition explores interwar Germany and serves as a follow-up to previous displays at the International Cultural Centre Gallery, showcasing the architecture of newly independent Central Europe and avantgarde revealing the culture of countries emerging in our part of the continent after 1918.

In May 2021, MOCAK celebrates the tenth anniversary of its opening. The occasion is marked by a cycle of exhibitions from the museum’s collections, presenting a range of thematic series and diverse media, including artworks going on display for the first time.
