One of the tenement houses undergoing renovation on Włókiennicza Street in Łódź, unlike a dozen or so others, was rebuilt and remodeled by private entrepreneur Andrzej Walczak – an architect, artist, and businessman. He collaborated with architect Wiesław Jankiewicz (technical documentation) and Marek Janiak, Łódź’s city architect, who “supported and advised” the investor on the façade design. This project appears to be the boldest and most far-reaching attempt to incorporate postmodernist ideas into the already aesthetically controversial Włókiennicza Street in Łódź. The new building will soon be the headquarters of the Atlas Sztuki Foundation (of which Andrzej Walczak is president) and simultaneously a new cultural institution with exhibition and museum functions.
