Poland-Germany. A 1000 Years of Art and History\" celebrates the 2011 Polish Presidency of the EU Council.\u003cbr/\u003eThe exhibition is jointly organised by Museum Martin Gropius Bau in the German capital, Berlin, and the Royal Castle in the Polish capital, Warsaw.\u003cbr/\u003eThe sensitivity of the collaboration is rooted in the troubled history of the two nations.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Royal Castle was destroyed to its foundations, and the uprising of the Polish Home Army crushed, by German troops during World War Two.\u003cbr/\u003eNow, 67 years later, around 800 historical and contemporary exhibits illustrate the thousand-year history of the complex relations between the two nations. Located in the centre of Europe, Poland - the first country to be invaded by Germany in World War Two - was chosen by the Nazis for the site of the concentration camps and gas chambers of the Holocaust.\u003cbr/\u003eNegotiating this turbulent history was the job of curator Anda Rottenberg:\u003cbr/\u003e\"First of all no neighbourhood is easy. And I believe it is important to show, to let the people learn more about the whole period so that you build up the distance and you see that in this perspective of thousand years not always there were wars but also there were marriages, for example.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe exhibition begins in the year 1025 with St. Adalbert and Richeza, who married the future King Mieszko II and became Queen of Poland.\u003cbr/\u003eIt then carries on up to the present day through key points in history including the medieval pageantry of the Landshut Wedding, inspired by the extravagant nuptials of the Polish Duchess Hedwig and Duke George the Rich of Bavaria in Germany, in 1475.\u003cbr/\u003eIt covers the period of the Teutonic Knights of the medieval period; through the International Gothic movement of the 14th and 15th centuries; up to the German enthusiasm for Poland in 1831; the Second World War; Solidarnosc; and through to Poland''s accession to the EU in 2004. \u003cbr/\u003eLoans have come from throughout Europe. The exhibition provides a unique opportunity to see all ten extant engravings and all of the known drawings of the master wood sculptor Veit Stoss. His life and works are of equal importance to German and Polish art history. \u003cbr/\u003eStoss''s greatest masterpiece, the wooden altarpiece in St. Mary''s Church in Krakow was sculpted in the years 1477-89, and is now considered one of the most outstanding altarpiece triptychs of the late Middle Ages. Veit Stoss was a citizen of both Nuremberg and Krakow - his work in the exhibition testifies to close cultural ties between the two cities in the 15th and 16th centuries.  \u003cbr/\u003eContemporary artists like Anselm Kiefer and Luc Tuymans - both dealing with painful 20th century German-Polish history including the gas chambers - are also included in the exhibition.\u003cbr/\u003eFor curator Anda Rottenberg, contemporary art has an important role to play in telling the story of the two nations:\u003cbr/\u003e\"You know contemporary art serves as a footnote to history and at the same time it shows the distance and it is also always significant. Each subject is different. But, because it is not my history I don''t tell the history, I let it be shown.\"\u003cbr/\u003eGerman artist Jochen Gerz was one of the first contemporary artists to show work dealing with the Holocaust in Warsaw in the 90s.  Polish viewers were shocked and impressed. Just emerging from the censorship of the communist era, it was all so unexpected says Gerz:\u003cbr/\u003e\"At the time the Polish capital was not flooded with contemporary art. So people were pretty shocked about - \"What does it mean?\". You have this kind of eclipse. You see a black picture and the picture is done out of many, many images but the images don''t look at you, but look at the wall. And it creates a kind of mysterious and threatening image. When you turn it around I got the video, the video I got for this piece comes straight from New York. And it is a chimney fire, that many people in America put themselves into the chimney.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe end of the exhibition is devoted to the history of the 1980s and the Polish Solidarnosc Movement that helped bring down the communist regime. Here the artists are set against the backdrop of a tense political situation in the dying years of communism, their art acting as mediator between the two countries. \u003cbr/\u003e\"Side by Side.
