    Good Violence
    Warsaw is considered as a city of chaotic urbanism, unsolved issues and wastelands in the city centre. That makes Warsaw a very complex and inspiring space for architects and artists. What fascinates them is what makes the inhabitants uncomfortable and tired. What can come out from merging those two distant attitudes? Is it possible to invent a city acting in micro scale? - Those questions are unsolved issues we have been dealing with for the past 10 years.
    The Bec Zmiana Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that supports artistic and cultural activities aimed at discovering the spaces and ways in which the spirit of the times makes itself manifest. The Foundation acts as an initiator of interdisciplinary events that engage creators in the field of art, architecture, design, music, and carries out the majority of its projects in the public space. During more than ten years of its activity, the Foundation has realised several dozens of exhibitions, projects, presentations, discussions, publications and artistic projects.
