GUIDED TOURS IN ENGLISH / Body and image. Representations of human body in art

2026-02-14 / 13:00

Saturday / 1pm

tour guide: Romualda Radwańska

 

The human body and art are deeply intertwined. Artists shape their visions through the body—both as a tool and a subject. Across centuries, shifting ideals of beauty and evolving artistic roles have produced countless interpretations of human corporeality. These transformations are captured in the works displayed in the NMW's permanent galleries, where we will explore the body as both image and idea.
