For the general public
One of the pillars of the DOX Centre's activities is education. We develop creativity, empathy, and creative thinking, which are useful for everyone from pre-schoolers to adults. We draw inspiration from social problems and the DOX Centre's exhibition projects provide us with a rich source of material to draw upon. Because at the moment we cannot provide this programme on our premises, we've created on-line versions. Learn how to move about safely in the world of the internet, or how to use an error to your benefit.
Our catalogue
Sticking Your Neck Out: MILKOV
Programme for the MILKOV exhibition and the role of the artist. What is the role of courage and the ability to follow one's own path in any kind of creation? What about us? What fascinates us? What are our problems, what troubles us and what do we want and can we do about it?
Story Exchange: MILKOV
Telling stories has been part the human experience since time immemorial. We create stories, remember them, write them down, illustrate them, share them. Experience an educational programme according to the international Narrative 4 project and images from the MILKOV exhibition.
Storybox: The Consolation of Objects
How much does a narrative need illustration and a picture needs a story? At DOX, we believe that a gallery and an exhibition in it is like a big box full of stories and you just have to choose. The programme draws inspirational material from the ambiguous yet poetic works of Orhan Pamuk.
DJ Curator: The Consolation of Objects
The programme for the exhibition The Consolation of Objects with the works of Orhan Pamuk introduces students and pupils to the role of the curator in contemporary art. In a broader sense, it shows the curator as an essential figure in any information creation.
From a Different Perspective: The Consolation of Objects
An educational programme using Narrative 4 methodologies, excerpts from Orhan Pamuk's work and visual material from the exhibition The Consolation of Objects. Get to know others and yourself from a different side.
#Datamaze: Algorithmic future
Thanks to smartphones, digital technology has literally gotten under our skin. They are our daily companion. But do we understand how they work? In this workshop we will explore the meaning of the word algorithm and its importance in today's digitally saturated society.
The Truth, or a Lie?
Can truth be objective? The educational programme explores the thin line between truth, lies and constructed opinion, especially in the field of human culture and public space.
#Datamaze: The Magic of Design
Design is all around us - in both the natural and human world. It's an excellent helper, but can also easily become a means of seduction and deception. In the digital world, design defines how we interact with the virtual universe behind the monitor.
#Datamaze: Data Detox
Has an ad on Google every surprised you by promoting something that you are expecting to be delivered tomorrow by courier? Don’t you sometimes get the feeling that your life is being controlled by some sort of algorithm?
Ordinary Heroism
What do we do when there is a potentially dangerous situation occurring in our vicinity? Do we intervene, or do we leave it up to others? The Ordinary Heroism programme presents a psychological phenomenon known as the bystander effect.
Breaking Down Stereotypes
What are our stereotypes good for? What do they allow us to do and how do they limit us? What can prejudice do? We live in a time and a society in which hate speech is becoming a routine part of our lives.
Space for Manipulation
Every place, every building affects us. The fact that often we aren’t even aware of it is another issue. How do we perceive the building we’re in right now? Once upon a time it was an old, abandoned factory, now it is an exclusive gallery.
