Maciej and Stanis\u0142awa Nowicki\u201d <\/em>exhibition<\/a> curated by National Institute of Architecture and Urban Planning in Warsaw, featuring two prominent figures in the history of American and Polish architecture, Maciej (Matthew) Nowicki and Stanis\u0142awa Sandecka-Nowicka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stanis\u0142awa Sandecka-Nowicka was a talented graphic artist and designer and the first female professor of architecture in the history of the United States. Maciej (Matthew) Nowicki collaborated \u2013 despite his young age \u2013 with renowned architects on prestigious projects whose implementation was interrupted by his tragic death. Their story is a fascinating tale of creative passion, their life together, and the possibilities and limitations of the turbulent beginning of the 20th century. The dramatic history of their homeland, their lived experiences, but also a great hope for a better future laid the foundation for an innovative curriculum and architectural designs that changed the history of the profession. By combining the latest building developments with great respect for the local context, their readiness for dialogue and understanding of others, as well as their enormous talent, they created a humanistic modernism that opened the contemporary understanding of architecture to previously unknown realms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"763\" data-id=\"10203\" src=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-3-3-1024x763.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-3-3-1024x763.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-3-3-300x224.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-3-3-768x572.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-3-3.jpeg 1232w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"756\" data-id=\"10202\" src=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-4-1-1024x756.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-4-1-1024x756.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-4-1-300x222.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-4-1-768x567.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/01\/szkic-4-1.jpeg 1243w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf time had allowed his genius to spread its wings in full, this poet-philosopher of form would have influenced the whole course of architecture as profoundly as he inspired his friends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eero Saarinen <em>1910\u20131961, Finnish-American architect and interior designer, one of the most prominent figures in American architecture of the 1950s.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curatorial tour of the exhibition will be held by the curator of the Head of External Projects and Exhibitions Department at NIAiU, Mr. Kacper K\u0119pi\u0144ski, during reception on the opening day Jan 15 and additional day TBD will be announced.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" data-id=\"9859\" src=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkc-1-1024x724.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9859\" srcset=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkc-1-1024x724.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkc-1-300x212.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkc-1-768x543.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkc-1.jpeg 1299w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"828\" data-id=\"9860\" src=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkic-2-1024x828.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9860\" srcset=\"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkic-2-1024x828.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkic-2-300x243.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkic-2-768x621.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/newyork\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/szkic-2.jpeg 1135w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/calendar.aiany.org\/2024\/01\/16\/humanist-modernity-stanis%C5%82awa-and-maciej-nowicki-polish-architects-in-the-us\/\">panel program<\/a> participants will discuss Nowicki&#8217;s work in the context of post-war reconstruction, architecture as a tool for building a new identity, and international cooperation between major architects and designers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Speakers:<\/strong><br><strong>Karolina Cz\u0119czek<\/strong>,&nbsp;Principal, Only If;
