"Art in Prisons" is a project aiming to popularise community work in prisons initiated by contemporary artists. Classes, discussions, lectures and workshops, prepared by artists and social activists, have taken place at various Polish prisons. The project, developed as an integrated participative action, is meant not only to help rehabilitate the inmates and prepare them for a return to life outside, but also to provoke potential recipients to reflect on the contemporary notion of punishment, its long-term rationale, and its role, if any, in overhauling the convicts’ personalities and value systems.
The exhibition is a result of a project conducted by Fundacja Dom Kultury.
