One hundred years ago, in 1918 the Second Republic of Poland was proclaimed and the complicated process of rebuilding the country after its absence from the political map of Europe has begun. Ideas of social modernisation quickly emerged from poverty of undervalued groups such as workers and national minorities. Architects, designers and activists started developing different projects based on social participation, activation of the community and broad education.  

The exhibition focuses on this important period of Polish history which lasted only 20 years but resulted in dynamic social and cultural changes. The visual narrative of the exhibition contains many interesting photographs, films and graphics.
