An Event Appearing Due to Words

Summary/Abstract: Home and museum collections coexist alongside each other. Despite all differences they serve a shared challenge, i.e. communing with all beings. They were and remain autonomous. Historical museums, including the Tatra Museum, came into being thanks to private collections. Within the Zakopane context mention is due to the Chałubiński, Kocjan, and Dębowski’s collections and as well as the recent transformation of the home and atelier of Władysław Hasior into the Władysław Hasior Gallery – a branch of the Tatra Museum. The fundamental source of contemporary thought – critical reflection encompassing all culture facilities, including museums – leaves no doubt regards their ideological, political, class or race entanglements. We already know that this is not an incidental phenomenon but an inalienable modus vivendi. Today it is the force of museum presentations, their metropolitan, perfect, and to a fault worked through force that steers us towards the privacy of a home, a fragile and, for this reason, a genuinely different ability. We have to work for the sake of this independence since it is due to it that we can enjoy insight into its multiplicity and reality.
