The exhibition and catalogue could come to existence thanks to a wonderful commitment of the six European cities where the model Werkbund estates are located: Stuttgart, Brno, Wroclaw, Vienna, Zurich and Prague. The realization of this idea required a solidary and consistent approach from all the engaged parties. Each of the partners made all the exhibits freely available and delivered them to the Museum, this also includes the photographs, plans, images and essays by outstanding experts, which are published in the catalogue for the exhibition. The exhibition takes place as part of the architectural plan for the European Capital of Culture Wroclaw 2016 and is financed with funds from the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage which are distributed by the National Music Forum. The project is carried out in cooperation with the Impart Festival Office 2016 who is the organiser of the European Capital of Culture Wrocław 2016.

And very soon another new release: “Patchwork. The Architecture of Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak.”
