Art that migrates to our homes

In Krzyżowa, we follow what is currently happening on social media, we look at the diverse educational and cultural offer that is flourishing online and we are looking for inspiration for our work. We have not missed the action of many world museums: „Beetween Art and Quarantine”. For many people staying home due to quarantine, recreating of the works of famous painters turned out to be fun and brought interesting results.

Cheers!

Spring is in full swing, so the area around the Foundation is green and more plants appear. Among them also nettle, which - as part of one of our ecological projects - will be on the boards of nature which are currently being created by Ania - our friend from the European Academy.

Ania works on the graphic concept of boards, prepares texts in three languages ​​and ... sips nettle tea!

Cheers!

Krzyżowa in the movies...

Last summer a film crew worked for one day in Oak Avenue. Today you can watch the scenes shot on our beautiful alley leading to the Palace. There is already a film "Der Überläufer" available (directed by Florian Gallenberger), in which our alley "played" (4 minutes of the film).

"Der Überläufer" is an adaptation of the famous novel "Dezerter" by the German writer, Goethe Prize winner Siegfried Lenz, published also in Poland.
