Day 3 : Kraków
Location: Kraków
Accommodation: Hotel
Meals Included: Breakfast
This morning is reserved for an optional visit to Kazimierz district that housed Kraków’s Jews from 500 years. In the last decade it has been rediscovered, and its hollowedout Jewish culture gradually reintroduced. Famous for its associations with Schindler and Spielberg, there’s more to the historic Jewish quarter than cemeteries and synagogues. The afternoon offers an optional visit to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Kraków MOCAK, which has been active since 1st February 2010, encompasses presentation of the latest international art, education as well as research and publication projects. MOCAK’s two most important aims are presenting the art of the two last decades in the context of the post-war avant-garde and conceptual art as well as clarifying the rationale of creating art by highlighting its cognitive and ethical value and its relationship with everyday reality.
