This is nearly the last opportunity to see the exhibition, which is only open until January 5.

The project, "Anti-handbook. How to Build an Invisible Place" uses art as a tool to work with fears and traumas, bringing together invited artists, patients and staff of the Hospital for the Nervously and Mentally Ill in Rybnik.

It presupposes a temporary suspension of the standard rules and procedures of the institution. Part of the process is to transcend the modus operandi of a total institution, in which therapists and patients are separated, drawing a line between what is considered normal and what is subject to medicalization and, at the same time, exclusion from the social space with its entrenched categories of utility and productivity.
