National Museum in Kraków

The most amazing exhibition I have seen so far considering I am traveling a lot. So well-curated. The framing is amazing as well. I also popped in on Tuesday and saw the exhibition free of charge. The evening was not busy even though it was a free entry day. The only thing that was frustrating is the rude staff. But it is nothing compared to the show!

It is challenging to navigate this place, and the many staff who wander around don't offer any advice, suggestions or information. I couldn't work out which ticket booth to go to when I first arrived but it seemed as though either one was OK in the end. I started up on the top floor but had no idea how to make my way around the place, and found myself going backwards in time. There is a lot of great art and interesting information but it has been really oddly curated, so there is a disconnect between what visitors might want to know when looking at a work of art and where to go to find the information. The floor below is packed full of decorative arts but was pretty empty. All very dark, poorly lit and strangely explained. This museum could be excellent...
