description In 1944, Marian Bogusz created architectural drawings depicting an imagined modernist settlement intended to host artists from all over the word. At that time he was a prisoner of the concentration camp in Mauthausen where he connected with other artists and attempted to organise cultural life. Bogusz desired that the artist settlement be erected on the ruins of the camp, thus demonstrating the dream of a modernist utopia that continued even during the war, even in a concentration camp. Yet, perhaps equally startling, is how difficult this dream was to realise in the dystopian reality of the immediate post-war period. The aim of this essay is to present the path of modernist discourse in Poland during and in aftermath of the Second World War, a time when artists not only faced the destruction brought about by war, but also the radical social transformation of the communist revolution. The author focuses on the artistic practice of Marian Bogusz, a prolific figure of the post-war artistic scene in Warsaw, analysing his aesthetic and ethical claims. Making use of Alain Badiou’s notion of truth in art she considers the way Bogusz contained his contemporary moment and positioned himself vis-a-vis his dramatic experience of war and the emergence of Socialist Realism.
