Exhibition summary

The 'BioBlitz' project was a participatory initiative focused on documenting the biodiversity of the Royal Łazienki Park. Its findings and collaborative efforts formed the 'Nature' thematic space within the temporary exhibition 'Łazienki w zachwycie'. The project involved experts and the public in field research conducted in spring and continued as part of the exhibition's program in late 2025.

Curatorial context

The 'BioBlitz' project served as a foundational element for the 'Nature' thematic space within the temporary exhibition 'Łazienki w zachwycie' at the Royal Łazienki Museum. This participatory initiative aimed to explore and document the rich biodiversity of the Łazienki Park through field research conducted by experts and the public. The research spanned various groups of organisms, including birds, fungi, lichens, mosses, aquatic invertebrates, fish, arachnids, and nocturnal butterflies, with field sessions taking place from April to mid-June 2025. This collaborative effort not only generated valuable scientific data but also fostered a deeper connection between the public and the natural environment within the historic park. The project involved sixty participants, ranging from seasoned naturalists and educators to enthusiastic amateurs, guided by eight specialists. The findings demonstrated that the historical park in the center of Warsaw functions as a vibrant ecosystem, highlighting the need for continued monitoring and nature education. The project's outcomes were later integrated into the 'Łazienki w zachwycie' exhibition, and further educational sessions on fungi and lichens, based on the BioBlitz methodology, were held in November 2025 as part of the exhibition's programming.
