Abstract

In this paper, the author takes the concept of space and exhibitions in a science centre as an “accessible laboratory”. By analysing the curatorial concept of the largest institution of this kind in Poland — Warsaw’s Copernicus Science Centre — she reconstructs the model of this new type of exhibition institution. The author interprets this model as an effort to break the pattern of symbolic violence, which — deliberately or not — is reproduced in exhibition spaces and educational institutions. The crisis of public confidence in science constitutes the context of the analyses presented here.
