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
The Truth, or a Lie?
A teaching workshop in the framework of the FALL festival and connected with the exhibition Point of View: Identity.
Empathy through story exchange
A seminar for librarians and teachers in the framework of the FALL festival and connected with the exhibition KAFKAesque.
Storybox: Melancholy of the Outer Limits
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 an exhibition of small but impressive paintings by Josef Bolf.
DJ Curator: KAFKAesque
The programme for the KAFKAesque exhibition 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 production.
From a Different Page: KAFKAesque
Since the invention of writing, text and image have been among the most important means of conveying information and extending memory. Before the internet, the most common medium for this memory was the book. Experience an educational program using Narrative 4 methodologies and KAFKAesque exhibition imagery.
Sticking Your Neck Out: KAFKAesque
Programme for the KAFKAesque 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?
#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: 123456
What’s your password like? How many passwords do you really use? What do you think of a password/PIN consisting of “1234”? Passwords are tools we use to help hide information that is important to us from other people.
#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?
#Datamaze: You Are Content
The internet changed the world of advertising. It has become even more omnipresent, but not only that. It is increasingly more difficult for us to distinguish what is and isn’t advertising.
#Datamaze: Data Shadow
How does my digital content get created? What all can be done with it? Who can access it? The objective of the Data Shadow programme is to talk with participants and reflect on what data they are creating, for example through social networks.
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.
