“Satan’s Children” exhibition open for three more days!

The exhibition does not have a historical nature. The issues emerging from the works and the need to confront the phenomena determining our lives are extremely relevant.

The exhibition is open from September 25 until October 11, 2015

 

The exhibition’s title refers to the novel Satanas Kinder by Stanislaw Przybyszewski – a disturbing, helter-skelter anarchist manifesto, a praise of destruction, chaos and rejection of taboos and order. It is also a contribution to today’s interpretation of the person and ideas of Stanisław Przybyszewski (1868-1927) – the spiritual and social anarchist, a figure seemingly assimilated by the Polish intellectual world, but in fact banished from it. The project also serves as an opportunity to explore the theme of the figure of Satan himself – timidly exorcised from the Polish culture, a symbol of rebellion and knowledge, a new beginning. The knowledge-bringing Lucifer is thus the second protagonist of the exhibition.
