Please date and attribute the monument

I want to dedicate the photo to all my friends from our History of Art course.


Agata Chrzanowska, Please date and attribute the monument, Florence 2006.

The truth is that I went to Italy in 2006 to see the facade of this church... I set off the train on the Santa Maria Novella station and run to the piazza immediately... and... I saw what you can see above. I've got to say that I found it even interesting...

For Kuba - little bikes in the midle of a Venetian campo

Kuba asked me why do I put photographs here so rarly. Hmm... That is a good question ;). So I stared to scan another part of my archive... Unfortunately my scanner has problems with color slides. But... I will do all my best!

So... let's start from Venice and its campi. The campi are the centre of Venetian life. Here people gather, talk, eat and, what is most important, here the children play.
 
Agata Chrzanowska, Little bikes, Venice 2008.

Little bikes... I'm so happy that there are two of them.

Metropolitan by Norman Foster


Agata Chrzanowska, Metropolitan, 2009.

First of all - long long time ago... there was a summer in Warsaw... It would be easy to forget this fact because the winter seems to be eternal this year.
Another thing: the square frame attracts me...
Last but not least: modern architecture attracts me too.

She feeds the city...

Wisła... The Vistula River - a miracle of a wild river passing through a city of 2000000 inhabitants.
Yes... I know what you will say... It is truth that the river does not exist in our way of living the city. I hope it would change some day, but still, I do not want it would signify putting the Vistula into a concrete river bed.
