uncube No. 31
Poland
Kultur statt Stahl. Wo vor wenigen Jahren noch kommunistische Ikonen und postindustrielle Ruinen das Bild bestimmten, geht das Leben in Polen neue Wege. Für die neue Ausgabe No. 31 Poland nimmt uncube den Berlin-Warszawa-Express, um Museen, Theater und Stadien zu entdecken, dem brutalistischen Erbe zu huldigen und junge Aktivisten zu treffen. Jenseits der Ost-Monotonie hat Polen längst seinen eigenen architektonischen Stil, auch wenn dieser oft umstritten ist.

Post-War, post-industrial and post-communist, Polska has certainly had its fair share of struggles and identity issues. But the past decade has seen a land best known for its industrial powerhouses turning instead to the production of cultural capital.
For issue No. 31: Poland uncube hitched a ride east on the Berlin-Warszawa-Express to find a land where grassroots activists are challenging mainstream politics and developers are vying with EU funding to create a whole new architectural landscape – one on which opinion in the country is sharply divided.
