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: Argus & Medusa
Programme for the exhibition Argus & Medusa: On Hope in Dark Times. What role do courage and the ability to follow your own path play in any creative endeavor? Artists often invite us into their own stories through their works, and authenticity is valued, whether it conveys beauty, joy, or despair. Come and stick your neck out.
Story Exchange: Argus & Medusa
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 Argus & Medusa: On Hope in Dark Times exhibition.
From a Different Perspective: FAUST
An educational programme using Narrative 4 methodologies, visual material from the exhibition FAUST and various literary forms. Get to know others and yourself from a different side.
DJ Curator: Argus & Medusa
The programme for the exhibition Argus & Medusa: On Hope in Dark Times introduces students and pupils to the role of the curator in contemporary art. In a broader sense, it shows the curator as a key figure in any creative process and gives students the opportunity to try out this role for themselves.
#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.
#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.
