The focus of the paper is on the very controversial issue of recent years – building the inner city ring road in Wrocław. The planned location of the ring road crosses Szczyt- nicki Park – one of the oldest historical parks in the city. The project included the location of a four-lane street on the edge of the park and crossing far coherent historical urban complex (the components of this complex are remarkable modernistic building such as: UNESCO WHO Heritage site – Centennial Hall, Zoological Garden, WUWA Exhibition Area, Olimpic Stadium and housing estates Sępolno and Biskupin) generates multifaceted social conflicts. Keywords: Szczytnicki Park, Wroclaw, historical urban park, restoration and preservation Streszczenie Artykuł stanowi kontynuację rozważań autorki, dotyczących zabytkowych parków Wrocławia, których piękno może zostać wkrótce utracone w wyniku działalności człowieka. Główny nacisk położono na bar- dzo kontrowersyjny w ostatnich latach temat budowy obwodnicy śródmiejskiej Wrocławia, której pla- nowany bieg przecina Park Szczytnicki, jedno z najstarszych zabytkowych założeń parkowych miasta. Projekt przeprowadzenia w obrzeżach parku czteropasmowej drogi, przecinającej spójny dotąd zabytkowy kompleks urbanistyczny, którego elementy stanowią wybitne osiągnięcia architektury modernistycznej (m.in. wpisana na Listę Światowego Dziedzictwa Kulturalnego i Przyrodniczego UNESCO Hala Stulecia, Ogród Zoologiczny, teren wystawy WUWA, Stadion Olimpijski oraz osiedla Sępolno i Biskupin), generuje wielopłaszczyznowe konflikty społeczne.

    CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING REPORTS ISSN 2080-5187 CEER 2015; 17 (2): 73-81 DOI: 10.1515/ceer-2015-0023 REVITALISATION AS A FORCE PROMOTING SPATIAL CHANGES IN WROCŁAW Aldona KOŻAN1 Wrocław University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture, Wrocław, Poland Abstract The idea of revitalization, which grew out of the need to repair degraded urban spaces, has taken on a new meaning in the context of contemporary development challenges. The work includes references to the basic programme documents and strategies. It shows regeneration activities carried out in Wrocław in connection with the organization of international events, cultural and sport events, and with the improvement of spatial order. These actions contributed to the revitalization of the image of the city. The paper contains the results of these changes, the complementarity of decisions and their impact on social behaviour. Keywords: Wrocław, strategy, revitalisation programmes, investments for Euro 2012, public space, WUWA 2. 1. THESIS Revitalisation programmes have become a tool of socio - spatial transformations of a city, its most devastated and impoverished areas, as well as neglected historic buildings and sites; they were developed in parallel with visions of Wrocław development as a open, metropolitan city which cooperates with the region and plays a significant role in the country and Europe. The implementation of revitalization programmes is a long-term, multi-faceted and mutable activity, planned for many years. After a dozen years of intensive revitalization activities, a number of investments were realised, which contributed to a new quality of residents' lives and Wroclaw's built-up area. 1 Corresponding author: Wrocław University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture, B.

    MILANO | SUPERSTUDIO MAXI 7 - 10 OCTOBER 2021 10TH EDITION MIA – Milan Image Art Fair © RANKIN, Blue Leopard – Pink , Saved By The Bell series, 2018 / Courtesy of 29 ARTS IN PROGRESS gallery One of the most eagerly awaited events on the Italian art scene is back with in-person visits. The most important Italian fair dedicated to photography has many new features: new dates, a new venue, two new sections, a panel of 90 galleries, plus 50 exhibitors divided among publishing, design and special projects, bringing the total number to 140. MIA FAIR is finally back! Italy's most important photography art fair, directed by Fabio and Lorenza Castelli, comes back with in-presence visits, after the cancellation of the 2020 edition due to the health emergency. A year of suspension that has not passed in vain. Professionals, collectors and simple photography enthusiasts will find from 7 th to 10 th October 2021 many interesting new features. A very special edition, starting from the artist chosen for the visual image of the event: the British photographer Rankin , who has always stood out, throughout his long career, for his bold approach behind the lens. An inspiring project capable of creating incisive images, portraits that develop a rightfully contemporary iconography. Rankin’s images come from his Saved by the Bell project, proposing a new indefinite visage. MIA FAIR could not forget to pay homage to one of its dearest friends, Giovanni Gastel , who recently passed away: the exhibition project that the Milanese photographer had conceived for the 2020 edition will indeed be proposed in the October edition.

  • Spaces for Beauty: in Action
    Spaces for Beauty: In Action In Beauty: for Spaces Przestrzenie dla piękna. W działaniu 2016 Spaces for Beauty: In Action Version 01.2016 Wrocław 2016 Dear Readers, I’m happy to announce that we’ve made it! We’ve finished the preparations for Wrocław as the European Capital of Culture. A few years ago, when we were wondering what kind of capital we would be, we didn’t know much. The initial euphoria was followed by reflection and questions. Will more residents participate actively in our city’s cultural life after 2016? Will we read more, visit theatres and concert halls more often? We still don’t have answers to those questions and we will probably have to wait a long time to get them. But we know one thing – today Wrocław is already a different city. Not thanks to a beautiful, modern concert hall or interesting new seat of the ECoC office in Barbara, renovated Nadodrze district, and not only because of considerable funds we spend and will spend on culture. Why then? Because the preparations for 2016 involved thousands of people. Mainly those young and ambitious just like Wrocław itself, but also those more mature, and previously not participating in cultural life. They transform houses and backyards, participate in workshops, apply for microgrants to implement their ideas. They see participation as an opportunity, and they join in the life of the city. And this is our shared victory. Achieved today, even before the celebrations have begun. I can’t say if in January 2016 Wrocław will be different than before, I can’t say if the European Capital of Culture can change the mentality and habits of the residents.
