Singers, dancers, technical staff and producers, all of whom are responsible for the artistic vision of performances and all of whom are artists, each being a master of their craft, caused that opera and ballet in Łódź constitute a very important and popular element of cultural life of the city. The exhibition entitled 60 YEAR OF PASSION FOR CREATION presents not only almost 300 archival photographs, but also stage set pieces and costumes, and… it also recreates the unique atmosphere of opera and ballet. Thus, one may go back to the “beginnings” and experience them once again, and – while reminiscing – also try to understand and appreciate how people who have a passion can impact others.
The exhibition was organised on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the opera house in Łódź, which was celebrated in 2014.
