The exhibition 'On the trail of the reindeer. A Tale of Northern Cultures. An Exhibition from the Collections of the Ethnographic Museum in Kraków" takes us into the world of the tundra of the northern reaches of Europe, Asia and America.

Kruche obrazy / Fragile Images

Using museum artefacts as well as contemporary works by artists, the exhibition ‘Fragile Images / Fragile Images’ is the result of the work of an interdisciplinary team of curators from Poland, Slovakia and Romania as part of the Tree Seas Art Festival 2025. Using museum artefacts as well as contemporary works by artists, it invites reflection on the fragility of plastic works and the softness of the matter from which they are made.

Sleep tight, sweet dreams

Sleep, a universal experience, has been a subject of reflection since the earliest times. It was perceived as a journey to a mysterious realm, with a foretaste of the afterlife. When asleep, one could shake off the constrictions of matter, time and space, come face to face with the sacred or encounter those who had passed away. It was when one was sleeping that knowledge unavailable in waking life was revealed, and it could be discovered and understood through prophets and interpreters.

Wandering. Tourists, Pilgrims, Migrants

In the midst of the summer holiday season, we are presenting three perspectives on travelling. The aim is a concrete destination which a tourist reaches on holiday, a pilgrim on the way to a sanctuary and a migrant on the way to a safe location. These are three very different experiences.

THE AWAKENING! New Year Starts in March

Why is New Year's Day in January while Easter is in spring? Do we associate spring only with joyful time brimming with life? What practices were used to make sure that spring would come? The exhibition at the Ethnographic Museum in Kraków is an attempt to answer the above questions by presenting customs and practices of various cultures related to the period of transition from winter to the spring awakening.
