The exhibition “Łazienki in Awe” is an emotional, multi-threaded story about the experience of awe in Łazienki Królewskie, presented through 10 thematic spaces inspired by the senses, art and everyday life. Each of them interprets a different source of awe — from nature and music, to relationships, sleep or movement — using works from the museum’s collection and contemporary installations by artists.
The exhibition can be experienced with many senses: sight, hearing, touch and smell.
The exhibition is complemented by:
- a wide programme of events for children, youth and adults
- guided tours (Saturdays and Sundays) — dates and topics: oprowadzania (oglądaj na Facebooku)
- an outdoor exhibition of nature photographers
- the installation “Pavilion of Time Stopped in Colour” by Alicja Bielawska on the lawn by Podchorążówka
- the “Studio of Awes” — a creative space in the Old Kordegarda
