Since 1989, urban spaces in Poland have undergone a process of dramatic transformation. Cities across the country have seen frenetic building听activity, as the construction of new commercial buildings, public institutions and infrastructure have changed the post-communist landscape. Warsaw - the nation's capital - is perhaps the most astounding example of this rapid change, especially over the last ten years.
Professor Ma艂gorzata Omilanowska - former Polish Minister of Culture and National Heritage - gave a fascinating lecture on the transformations of Polish architecture after 1989.
Professor Omilanowska听is an art historian. She specialises听in the architecture of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, theories of art, and conservation of monuments.
This event was co-organised by 海角社区 Polish Studies and the 海角社区 University Polish Society.
