5th of December to 14th of December – Euskalduna Bilbao (0A hall)
The project features an exhibition of historical photographs from the Tatra Museum’s archives, the oldest cultural institution in the Małopolska region, Poland, nestled at the foot of the highest mountains in Central Europe. It explores the unique environment of the Tatras and the surrounding mountain landscape as a force that has profoundly shaped the life and identity of local communities.
Through this exhibition, the Museum reflects on the potential of mountain regions in the context of a sustainable relationship between people and nature. On one hand, it highlights the distinctive local culture that has evolved in harmony with the natural world; on the other, it draws attention to the rapid growth of tourism and its impact on this delicate balance. Ultimately, the project seeks to focus public attention on the current state of mountain ecosystems and the environmental challenges they face.
