Learning
Special discussions with authors and artists aimed at sharing personal stories and workshops designed for school groups, lecturers, teachers, and librarians focus on developing empathy in the digital age. The workshops work with the successful methodology of the international educational project Narrative 4, co-founded by Irish award-winning novelist Colum McCann, the main guest of the first edition of the FALL festival.
DOX & CREATIVE LEARNING
The DOX Centre’s long-term educational concept is based on the idea of an art institution that responds to the themes that shape today’s world. The learning programmes for schools, teachers and other professionals span different artistic fields, themes, and approaches, with the goal of fostering empathy and critical thinking as key capabilities that will help us survive in the 21st century.
DOX’s educational programmes have garnered awards from the professional community. In the scope of its permanent offering of programmes, DOX produces an average of around 600 educational programmes yearly for schools, educators, and families with children.
Exhibitions during the festival
KAFKAesque
The exhibition KAFKAesque focuses on reflections on Kafka’s work and poetics in contemporary visual art offering not a historical perspective of his work, but a view that reflects our present-day situation with all its complexities and ambiguities.
9. 2. – 22. 9. 2024
Adam Štech: houellebecq!
The exhibition houellebecq! by Adam Štech is neither a tribute to the French writer Michel Houellebecq nor an illustration of his works. Nor does it attempt to interpret or explain anything of his texts. Štech explores primarily himself, mediated in any way.
21. 6. – 6. 10. 2024
Melancholy of the Outer Limits
The exhibition Melancholy of the Outer Limits presents, for the first time in its entirety, an extensive body of paintings created over the last ten years. Filled with faceless people lost in the ruins of cities, these paintings are a mirror of the artist's own soul.
6. 9. 2024 – 5. 1. 2025

An exhibition of works related to Jiří Hůla's exceptional scalpel drawing technique in honour of his 80th birthday. Exhibited at the Fine Art Archive.
