Kultur-Lige 2.0 - Revitalizing Contemporary Jewish Art in Poland with Dr. Aleksandra (Ola) Janush

Join us for an engaging one-hour online session live from Poland, featuring Aleksandra (Ola) Janus, as she returns to CSP to share exciting developments in the world of contemporary Jewish art. In 2023, the Zapomniane Foundation, the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews, and the Jewish arts and activism collective FestivALT launched Kultur-Lige, a network inspired by its early 20th-century predecessor. This initiative fosters connections among Jewish artists in Poland, focusing on revitalizing Polish Jewish culture. Ola will delve into the vision behind Kultur-Lige, introduce us to some of the talented artists involved, and provide an exclusive preview of their upcoming first group exhibition, "We Are Here," which she is co-curating this fall. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the vibrant resurgence of Jewish arts in Poland! Aleksandra (Ola) Janus holds a PhD in Anthropology from the Jagiellonian University in Cracow (Poland). She works at the intersections of academia, art, and activism. She has initiated numerous cultural and artistic projects as well as expert working groups, and authored many academic articles and publications. She is President of the Zapomniane Foundation aimed at locating, marking, and commemorating forgotten burial sites of the Holocaust victims in Poland.
