The ‘Emilia’ furniture store closed down 10 years ago. Will it return to Warsaw?

For over 40 years, the people of Warsaw came here to admire stylish furniture; later, they visited art…

"Tamed," Marian Wawrzeniecki, 1910.

An archaeologist, historian, ethnographer, and only incidentally a painter, Warsaw-born Wawrzeniecki (1863-1943) was a noted eccentric and a bit of a fraud.

From an artistic viewpoint, he had a very individual style; he'd had some training in art but abandoned the formal style he'd been taught and instead embraced his own approach. While classified as a Symbolist painter, he was really more of a Modernist, painting solely to achieve his own vision.

His work reflects Slavic folklore and mythology, often depicting witches and pagan gods, and he's considered a significant figure in the rise of Slavic neopaganism. Many of his works can be taken in multiple ways; this could be an illustration of a legend, or a symbol of humanity conquering nature or evil.

He did some fairly important work as an archaeologist, but also published transcriptions of assorted ancient and medieval documents that historians have since figured out he forged. Exactly why he did that is unknown.

From the National Museum in Warsaw.

Atacul asupra femeii în diferite aspecte Pre Scriptum, poate suna cam dur dar aş ruga să atrageţi atenţia la anumite elemente scoase în evidenţă de-a lungul textului, ceea ce vreau eu să scot la iveală e că femeia este ţinta anumitor schimbări care au început demult şi care riscă să ne facă să pierdem ceva… 👉 https://c.aparatorul.md/0lf23 👈 #emancipare #femeia #LaraZetkin #manipulare #modernism #ocnă #toleranţa #tv #ZeulEgalităţii

REMEMBERING WS GRAHAM

Brian Morton wonders if “the contrast between the industrial/mercantile foreground & the shock of green/purple hills & endless sky beyond” gives writers from Clydeside – like WS Graham – “a heightened sense of language & colour”
