Muzea-preteksty. Niezrealizowane przedsięwzięcia muzealne wobec negatywnego dziedzictwa w Warszawie

Museums–Pretexts. Unrealised Museum Projects Against Negative Heritage in Warsaw

The book presents unrealised museum projects, which were conceived in the context of the 20th century breakthrough moments for Warsaw as pretexts for physical transformation and symbolic interception of buildings perceived as “negative heritage”. Such museums were meant to exploit and transform the buildings whose future was the subject of public debate.

Keywords: city, museum, negative heritage, memory, Warsaw.
