Ukryte szczątki (“Hidden Remains”) at the Muzeum Architektury we Wrocławiu responds to the layered history of postwar rural architecture in Poland. The show explores how centrally planned housing transformed the countryside after 1945, juxtaposing archival materials with contemporary photographic documentation of former state farm settlements.

Designed by Kuba Maria Mazurkiewicz, the identity combines RL Limo with the functional clarity of Tekio Grotesk, reflecting the tension between modernist planning ideals and their fragmented present-day remains.

The exhibition visuals are built around photographic works by Jakub Certowicz, Karolina Jonderko, Jędrzej Sokołowski, and videography of Jerzy Wypych, documenting the lived reality and spatial traces of these architectural experiments, where utopian ambitions persist as “hidden remnants” within the landscape.

Curatorial team: Agnieszka Obal, Alicja Prusińska, Barbara Szczepańska.
