MUSEUMS IN THE POLISH LIBRARY IN PARIS
Journal Title: Muzealnictwo - Year 2016, Vol 57, Issue
Abstract
The Polish Library in Paris is an institution with a long tradition. Founded in 1834, it has been protecting the treasures of Polish historical and cultural heritage for over 150 years. Since 1903, the building has also been housing the Adam Mickiewicz Museum which makes it also a museum institution. Today, it also houses the so-called Salon Chopin commemorating the outstanding composer, and the Musée Bolesław Biegas, promoting the art of Polish artists active in Paris in the 19th and 20th century. The text analyzes the functioning of these three institutions, pointing out their strengths and challenges that they need to face.
