Students will learn the basics of image communication by plunging into Krakow’s life, from afar and on the ground. They will explore how small intimate places in a city can have larger meaning for an entire society. We will examine what makes certain spaces more controversial or problematic than others for local culture.
Through visits of churches, museums and all other cultural places in the city and the surrounding areas students gain vast knowledge and awesome appreciation of how spirituality was written into the Polish history in which Krakow plays a vibrant role as a former capital of Poland and nowadays the first rank centre of culture and tourism.
