The publication "The Collection Timespace" is not only a collection of works of art, but also a fascinating story about the development of Polish contemporary art. The author, Małgorzata Devosges-Cuber, leads the reader with passion and erudition through the maze of artistic inspirations and interpretations. This book is an excellent guide for all art lovers who want to deepen their knowledge about Polish constructivism and geometric abstraction.

In the publication we find works of a rational nature, based on criteria similar to the methods used in the exact sciences, and formally fitting into the trend of geometric abstraction. These works refer to the traditions and experiences of constructivism, with its idea of ​​synthesizing art, science and technical knowledge. However, it is not uncommon for geometry to abandon the orthogonal order here, creating organic forms that make up utopian visions of artistic and architectural fantasies, in which space can be perceived as both real and illusory.

The Museum of Architecture in Wrocław is an institution that has been collecting and presenting contemporary works of art for years. "The Collection Timespace" is the first exhibition in almost 20 years to present works from the rich collection of contemporary art from the holdings of the Museum of Architecture. This publication is an excellent complement to the exhibition, allowing for a deeper understanding of the works presented and their historical and cultural context.
