The article deals with the issues of cultural memory, memory as a commitment and ethical and artistic aspects of remembering (including memory and oblivion of Shoah victims). The author presents these issues in the context of Robert Fludd’s concept of “ars memoriae” and discusses them on the example of artistic, social and educational activities of the “Grodzka Gate - NN Theater” Center in Lublin (Poland).
