Keret House

Keret House - the narrowest house. The Keret House is an artistic installation, which has the form of an “insert” between two buildings representing different epochs in the history of Warsaw. The house is 70 cm in the narrowest place and 122 cm in the widest. It was designed by Jakub Szczęsny from the architectural group CENTRALA and built in 2012. The symbolic resident and patron of the house is Edgar Keret – a famous Israeli writer. The curators of the installation are Sarmen Beglarian and Sylwia Szymaniak from the Polish Modern Art Foundation. The Keret House is an artistic installation touching the subject memory of the place, a space in which artists from around the world realize their projects during artistic residences, and an example of extraordinary architecture. It draws attention with its small surface, which is a perfect example of an apartement in a small space. The house is owned by the Polish Modern Art Foundation.
