Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw: Space for Freedom

The first exhibition presented in the new Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw is reminiscent of eight years of repression under the PIS government and civil resistance worldwide. The visit is a political act for the Poles.

More than 300,000 people have already visited the Museum of Modern Art in the center of Warsaw – while the rooms were almost empty. The building was opened in October, so the collection, which started in 2005, has now been a fixed home for the first time. Like a white bar, the house lies in front of the Kulturpalast, the Soviet sore storm from the fifties, which still dominates the Silhouette Warsaw. The emptiness to visit the new museum was almost a political act. Now that the first exhibition has moved in on the three levels.
