Architecture as a Cultural Dialog : Three Odeons Concepts in Poland

Abstract

In the last 30 years, Poland made a huge step from closed communist society into the direction to open liberal society. For the new open society, new spaces for people’s cultural and political expressions have to be built. This paper presents the author’s participation in this movement illustrated based on three Odeon designs in Biała Podlaska, Kielce, and Warsaw. Different locations, materials, and historical contexts, but one idea of dialog with the culture and nature for a better society by the new architectural structures.
