A Polonus from the United States, sculptor Andrew Pityński, Stalowa Wola, a monument donated to "The Patriot."
Stalowa Wola adopted a memorial, but not too much to put it somewhere. "The Patriot" is in fact an American aspect: it is a figure measuring 12 meters. Actually, this is not a monument, just a statue. At first glance, it looks like one of the Transformers, captured during the change: Hussar is a wing, expressively curved made of brushed, dark metal, torn tissue simulants. The second wing was kilkut, the figure has a hole in the chest. It also has a sword like Connan Klata Barbarian, Superman figure. Maskulinistyczna killing machine. Superpatriota.
now is cast in Gliwice. The state of Stalowa Wola in the autumn.
creator of this abomination, Andrew Pityński, reminds me of Jan Matejko. Points of contact are as many as three.
First, historiozoficzność. For creativity Andrew Pityńskiego is a specific philosophy of history: Martyrdom. Pityński already carved statues of national heroes: Popieluszko, John Paul II (two pieces), Katyn, Blue Army, and the monuments on the subject of a more abstract, showing commendable attitude: "Partisans", "Sarmatian", "Avenger". And "The Patriot." In a macabre torn wing "Patriot" will be engraved date, symbolizing especially sublime moments in the history of Polish Golgotha \u200b\u200b"(this wording was used in the press release.) Similarly
Matejko did: his paintings depicting important moments in his view of history. What built his philosophy of history, you can read in a great book, Jaroslaw Krawczyk "Jan Matejko. Legends Master St. Stanislaus. " Matejko, moreover, he is not one of the nineteenth-century Poland, sought to answer the question: why Poland lost its independence? Is it her fault? When an error was made? What Poland needs to do to regain its independence? Pityński, writing on the wing Polish important dates, so it is the late son of Polish romanticism, which he's not surprised, cultivating outdated items is a feature of Polish groups, like storing vocabulary in Poland for a long time archaic and unused.
second element that combines Pityńskiego with Matejko, is style. Both combine realism, naturalism, and indeed, the symbolism. Both of them verge on the kitsch in your quest for naturalism, which is probably trivial to make a more persuasive symbolism. The result is impressive naturalism nagiętego to the argument. It is steeped in pathos and propaganda realistic novel.
joint third thing is to do with its international art gifts: gifts troublesome, I welcome them means adopting a philosophy of history behind the work. Failure to adopt and it is difficult, because - as Marcel Mauss taught in the "Sketch of the gift" - the rejection of the gift is always breaking the contact. When a renowned artist of one country to another country gives her historiosophical work, so we have to deal with violence in imposing their vision of history and his version of world order.
Matejko gave perhaps his huge paintings of France, which even then was evaluated (except Polish) as the bit that loses touch with reality. Again, I refer to the "Legends ..." tells the story of how Matejko European governments bestow gifts upon his vision of the fate of Polish painted on canvas. However Pityński bestows Poland for 13 years. The first gift was a monument to the Polish American Armed Deed (Blue Army), standing on the Warsaw Żoliborz Grunwald Square, between the stripes al. Polish Army. It's inhumane kitsch. The soldiers are the blue uniforms, although the monument is made of bronze. This is because the uniforms were cast from a special alloy, zabarwiającego in blue to give the blue color of uniforms. Heh.
Go back to "Patriot." It has funded the Association of Veterans Polish Army in America. Failure would be an affront, so Rzeszow adopted. But now she has a problem: the monument is a big, heavy and has no where to put it. The only place that comes into play - between the street lanes. National Education Commission, in the center - fall, because the eye-catching monument to result in accidents.
(source: rzeszow.gazeta.pl ) So actually I'm surprised that they found any, room for this monument. One article mentions that the president has enough monuments of Rzeszów, create memorial site ( here.) So it seems that the location of the stripes of the road is its intentional idea: putting the monument in Auge'owskim no-place to prevent the creation of the memorial around the American oddity. "The Patriot" will become the facility, designed for fast delivery. Maybe it's a good idea: in the United States poses a different and intriguing statues wielgachne signposts, in such places, the highways.
