This is a campaign to promote substitutes for disposable plastic shopping bags. Participants will be able to sow reusable sacks to replace plastic bags when buying fruit and veggies. Everybody will have a chance to make their own reusable shopping bag and decide if they want to take it home or pass it on to a local food store as part of the campaign. The museum has launched the campaign Reusable as a social action to accompany the exhibition Nature in Art (26 April 2019 – 29 September 2019). The action has met with an enthusiastic response, and MOCAK has continued the project.
The upcoming sessions: 9, 16, 23, 30 August 6 pm – 9 pm, and 6, 13, 20, 27 September 4 pm – 7 pm.
Co-ordinator: Anna Pyzik (pyzik@mocak.pl, tel. 12 263 40 36).
MOCAK Library
ul. Lipowa 4
REOPENING ON JUNE 16, 2020
The Library of MOCAK (acronym for Museum of Contemporary Art in Kraków) was set up to provide a valuable context to contemporary art. Apart from its own publications, exhibition catalogues, photo books, and monographic works on the artists, it provides access to books on the humanities. Its collection also includes art books developed as part of the education and art projects carried out in the library.
The Library of Mieczysław Porębski, which presents the Kraków section of the collection of the eminent critic and historian of avant-garde and contemporary art, forms an integral part of the collection. The room is modelled on the professor’s study and contains books that reflect his academic and artistic passions. It presents a priceless collection of works by painters, many of whom were his friends: Jerzy Nowosielski, Tadeusz Kantor, Maria Jarema, Andrzej Wróblewski, Witkacy, and others.
