Technique: <\/strong>ceramic mosaic<\/p>\n

Dimensions:<\/strong> approx. 10 m \u00d7 8 m<\/p>\n

Object:<\/strong> a two-part, large-format ceramic mosaic designed by Academy of Fine Arts professors Jerzy Zab\u0142ocki and Boles\u0142aw Petrycki, who were also responsible for the interior design of the Institute. The artists Andrzej Trzaska and Henryk M\u0105drawski executed the mosaic in 1974. It is composed of square ceramic tiles in shades of green and blue, arranged in an abstract, Pop-Art inspired geometric pattern.<\/p>\n

Place:<\/strong> The mosaic is on the fa\u00e7ade of a building constructed in the 1970s for what was then the Shipbuilding Institute of the Gda\u0144sk University of Technology. Two similar, but not identical mosaics were placed on the fa\u00e7ades of the two auditoriums protruding from the main structure of the reinforced concrete building. The building was designed in a modernist style infused with elements of brutalism.<\/p>\n
