Freedom Square (Plac Wolności) in Łódź

Highlight • Monument

In 1918, when Poland regained its independence, the market was renamed Freedom Square. In 1930, a monument to Tadeusz Kocciuszko was erected in the center of the square. After the annexation of Lodz by the Third Reich, the German occupation authorities of Lodz destroyed the monument on November 11, 1939, and the square was renamed Freedom Square, and in 1940, Germany Square. After the war, the monument was rebuilt in the same form in 1960. In 2022, the reconstruction of the square began. As part of the work, among other things, the tram traffic was completely moved to the north side of the square, the circular traffic around the monument was liquidated, trees were planted. The work was completed in early March 2024.

Rose Passage (Pasaż Róży)

Highlight • Monument

The author of the project is artist Joanna Rajkowska. Róża's Passage against the background of the author's earlier projects is a unique and personal realization that refers to the illness of the artist's daughter - Róża. The implementation of the project was very laborious, it consisted of pasting the walls of the tenement house at ul. Piotrkowska 3.

All walls in the tenement's yard were covered with pieces of mirrors. The enormous amount of light that appeared in the dark backyard made this place something extremely shimmering. The light-reflecting mosaic enlivens the surroundings, and the fragments of mirrors give seemingly mismatched and distorted images. However, it will only be an illusion that results from the broken mirrors symbolizing the diseased retina of the eye. It is up to the passers-by to make an effort to put together the fragments of reality anew. Rose's Passage is a project about the obligation to put a painting together. These actions are symbolic gestures referring to the reconstruction of Róża's retina after chemotherapy. After an illness, the girl has a residual vision, it is possible that her way of perceiving reality is also based on merging fragments of one picture together.
