Echoes of Edo, Glimpses of Meiji
The Art of Mizuno Toshikata
17.09.2025 - 16.11.2025
Exhibition is not only a first in Europe, but also the largest exhibition of Toshikata’s colour woodblock prints ever held anywhere in the world.

BIJUTSU SEKAI / THE WORLD OF ART
From the Collection of the Manggha Museum: The Gift of Raymond Milewski
17.09.2025 - 16.11.2025
An aspect of Meiji Era Japanese art that is practically unknown to the Polish public: the art magazine Bijutsu Sekai (The World of Art), edited and largely illustrated by Watanabe Seitei (1852–1918), as well as masterly kuchi-e and sashi-e for various publications.
Tremor
29.08.2025 - 07.09.2025
The artist’s practice involves an analytical approach to the components of landscape. Sikora generates her own system of signs, a kind of code in which she records and processes impressions harvested from nature. The challenge of tackling the stony matter consists in contemplative, well-nigh ritual probing of its rhythm and structure.
Suiseki
12th International Sanseki Exhibition and 1st National Suiseki Exhibition
26.08.2025 - 05.10.2025
The exhibition draws upon the classical methods of displaying stones combined with Polish suiseki collectors’ exhibits.

Project that offers an opportunity to take a look at the condition of man and the nature that surrounds us through the metaphor of water, rain, and tears. The works on display are by Krakow’s artists of the young generation while the curatorial team are members of the Manggha Museum Youth Council.
Mountains upon Mountains
Hokusai’s 100 Views of Mount Fuji from the collection of Ei Nakau

The Manggha Museum is going to exhibit for the first time a set of black-and-white sumizuri-e woodblock prints from the gift of a private collector and enthusiast of traditional Japanese art. In 2019, Ei Nakau, a connoisseur and promoter of majestic ukiyo-e compositions, decided to gift to our museum a set of three books containing the series of prints One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji by Katsushika Hokusai.
