Büro Kopernikus
an initiative of the Kulturstiftung des Bundes (German Federal Cultural Foundation). From 2004 to 2006 we carried out 22 German-Polish cultural projects that took place in both countries. After three successful years we will close our doors at the end of 2006. But Büro Kopernikus will continue to be accessible online – in the form of our online publication BüroKopernican Turn, which provides information on the projects, further readings, and a huge database with artists and institutions in both countries.
