Exhibitions
"“The belief that the high school, in terms of its location, the atmosphere that reigned there, the values that it transmitted, and the destiny of its students, was an exception, has contributed and continues to contribute to its legacy.”
Two exhibitions were organised with the help of our association in Villard-de-Lans: Polish posters in 1980 and Cyprian Norwid in 1991. We have taken part in a number of more general exhibitions, including: Les Polonais dans la Résistance (“Poles in the Resistance") (The Polish Library in Paris, 1996), Polonia (Cité nationale de l'histoire de l'immigration, Paris, 2011).
The first of our exhibitions dedicated to the Polish high school took place in 1996 at the Polish Institute in Paris on the theme, “A testimony to Franco-Polish friendship: the Cyprian Norwid high school in Villard-de-Lans, an exception in occupied Europe”. We have very few records relating to this exhibition. It was simply - and dramatically - lost, original documents included.
The second and subsequent exhibitions dedicated to the high school are presented here. All were in French, except for one, which was in Polish and English.
