The conference will be held on 22-24th June, if the situation allows, in offline mode. We invite scholars whose research concerns the tradition of ancient art and broad reception of antiquity in disciplines such as archaeology, history, history of art, cultural studies, and literary studies but not limited only to these. The proceedings will be organised in three panels, each of them devoted to a different aspect: collections of plaster casts, reception of Antiquity in city landscape and architecture, and the Antiquity in modern culture. Two days of proceedings will be followed by a tour in Warsaw, focusing on the places with the richest references to the ancient culture. We are also happy to announce that proceedings in every panel will be opened by the keynote speeches delivered by recognized specialists from various institutions. Proposals must be written in English and submitted to conference.echoes@gmail.com by 11th April 2022.

Draw out your gremlin – break free of limiting beliefs and self-judgements – coaching workshop for international students
Dear Students,
We would like to invite you to our next workshops for international students: ‘Draw out your gremlin’.
The workshop includes:
• Presentation of most common patterns of self-sabotage: creating a ‘storage of limiting beliefs’ – ignoring the positive and focusing on negative – allowing fear to take over and guide one’s thoughts and actions – focusing on the past – comparing with others – settling for less to be “on the safe side” – mastering procrastination
• Exercises and tools to find one’s self-sabotage patterns
• Strategies to overming your weakness, creating one’s own strategy and new thinking habits, boosting one’s strengths
• Exercise: Learning “force-field analysis” and “ants model” to deal with your self-sabotage and inner critic
• Staying accountable to yourself and some more tips and tricks
