UNIQA Art Lodz in Poland

-

 {Polish artist LUMP just unveiled six public art installations in Lodz, Poland which are based on advertising columns along Piotrkowska Street the longest street in Europe. The columns were transformed into giant, symbolical items – icons related to Polish People’s Republic (1952-1989).


The installations are:
1. An electronic coffee machine that was very popular in Poland in the 80’s.
2. A vacuum flask that was very popular in Poland in the 80’s.
3. A pepper shaker that was popular in Poland in the 80’s.
4. A jug that was very popular in Poland in the 80’s.
5. Famous washing machine called “Frania” – electronic rotary washer that was very popular in Poland in the ’80.
6. A soda siphon (also known as the seltzer bottle) – a metal device for dispensing carbonated or soda water in home conditions. Apart from the device and drinking water, special cartridges filled with compressed carbon dioxide were necessary. Siphons had different shapes and colors and cartridges were bought in cartons. Soda siphons were very practical devices in every home. In the 70’s and 80’s they were extremely popular, today are almost completely forgotten.


The installations of LUMP are the first part of international, public art project UNIQA Art Lodz directed by Michał Bieżyński.} READ MORE HERE

"Now is the time plot plan, strategize, organized and mobile. I am a mobilizer. I will try my best to mobilize people to get into action. The organizers are on the ground we need boots the ground. So it is nothing wrong with having the anger and emotion, passion over spill that we saw. Because that needs to happen to ignite. But now that you ignited. I need you on a weekly and daily basis to join a grassroots organization where ever you are. Join something so we can be allied and progress together. There are people doing the work that we want it done and let's join those organizations and help them. Join something so that it doesn't feel so lonely. Hope exists here."
