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

"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.

Die Rollei 35 ist so extrem klein und unauffällig, dass ich mit ihr auch gut meinen Weg in die Arbeit dokumentieren kann. In dieser Serie sieht man Bilder, die ich aus dem Wagon einer U1 geschossen habe. Hier sieht man ein Friedens-Murial „Woman with dove“ von Fintan Magee am United Nations Office at Vienna (UNOV) angebracht. Kurz vor der Einfahrt in die U-Bahn-Station Kaisermühlen VIC kann man einen guten Blick darauf erhaschen.

Bartok: Suite, Op. 14 - Alexandra Burch
https://youtu.be/ElbQivCCByw?si=W1O5uO5izgIXIoH9Even though this piece was published more than a century ago, to my ear it still sounds refreshingly modern. As I listen to it on a loop, I feel myself breaking out of a late romantic sound world which I do not reject but recognize as one that can for me all too easily become one of cliche, lush comfort, and mere reassurance.
I try, and at times attain, what one might call listening "success" with works of the paradigmatically modernist Second Viennese School.
At other times, though, I just feel lost.So I feel grateful to Bartok for composing music that is modern, not necessarily always "easy", yet which disproves the equation of "musical modernism" with "unintelligibilty".

Why am I obsessing over a children's bunny? Because Miffy is accidentally revolutionary. She’s the love child of Dutch modernism. And honestly, looking at how this little rabbit has captivated the world for 70 years, I think her creator cracked the code.

Absolutely love this from @Uniformbooks
I'm always excited by stuff that commemorates humdrum provincial locations, and Ian Waites does this wonderfully. The restrained tone is what does it - reminiscence should avoid self-indulgence - and the image repro is stunning.
