location: warsaw, poland
time: 1975-80
chomiczówką, chomiczówką, pierwsze wino, pierwsza wódka, mean that anything, (obviously something with vodka)
that song shows that there should be some character in this neighbourhood, but i didn’t experience so much of that. it was just a new example of colorful toy cities arisen from rehabilitation programs or the planner’s fantasy. but nothing significantly original. anyway, it looks pretty amazing on this photo, so maybe i was in too much of hurry (i just stepped of from an urban activist workshop, where i had the task to make beetroot paint), and didn’t discover the exciting parts.
but there are some nice picture, where concrete blocs become pastel scenes of fairy tales,


where the essence of warsaw housing feeling, the light green walls and rich vegetation are in present,


and some harder contours.
