Summary
The exhibition is planned as a seance, where the artists recall the memory of non existent buildings and monuments. They have addressed Katowice, a city of relatively short history, which has been undergoing urban renovations. Some of the invited artists have rewritten the history of a local object of their choice. Others, enchanted by unconfirmed information, avoided sticking to dates and facts, and took sentimental pilgrimages to empty places, talking to previous owners, museum workers and restorers. Each of them has chosen their original method and created a network of anecdotes and connections, a private map of an invisible city. Main goal of the project was not a creation of nostalgic, museum city guide, but to invigorate a discussion about the urban space of Katowice.--From the Museum's website.
