The group show “Wild Exaggeration. The Grotesque Body in Contemporary Art” focuses on the theme of the grotesque in contemporary art. The featured works include two video pieces by Katarzyna Kozyra in which the artist appears as Lou Salome – in the gardens of the Vienna Schwarzenberg Palace – training two actors dressed as dogs, in masks that are strikingly similar to Nietzsche and Rilke.

The play “Absinth”, based on a drama by Magdalena Fertacz, was presented in Israel on several occasions. “Absinth” returns this season to the stage of the Tmuna Theatre. The play had its premiere in December 2008 during the festival of Polish Drama in Tel Aviv. The drama was first presented at a directed reading session and met with such an enthusiastic response from the audience that, encouraged by the success, the director Maor Zagouri and a group of young actors decided to prepare a fully-fledged performance.
