Grzegorz Makarewicz,
I'm continuing my photo report from my walks around Warsaw. Those interested are invited to read part one. I'm starting with Unia Lubelska Square, a place of great importance not only for our capital but also linked to a historic event that shaped the fate of our country.
Here's a recently renovated tenement house near Unia Lubelska Square. It's not just any building, as evidenced by the commemorative plaque affixed to it.

Tenement house at Unia Lubelska Square
Those looking at the above photograph are probably having trouble believing it's not a photomontage. Unfortunately, they aren't. Below, you'll find a close-up intended to dispel any doubters. The commemorative plaque is visible on the left. It's surrounded by several "artistic" scribbles, painstakingly painted on the plaster by some idiot with no artistic skills. But murals can also have their charm. I showed photographs of these works of art on the walls in the first part of this description.

"Tourist attraction" for visitors to Warsaw
But the dilapidated facade of the tenement house, as you can see, isn't everything. The tenant, or perhaps the building owner, found (probably after much consideration) an incredibly spectacular location for the garbage cans. They complement the damaged facade with an equally striking set of accessories. The whole, as you can see, creates a truly stunning sight. Or perhaps the creator of this work had some hidden agenda? Perhaps it's an incentive for horror film producers to film nocturnal scenes of vampire duels here, paying a fortune for such an opportunity, which will eventually be used to restore historic sites in Warsaw? Who knows?

I return to the famous ruin at the ONZ roundabout visible below.

Recently, interesting "paintings" have appeared on its walls, which can be seen in the following photos.



As I was taking the above photos, I heard a loud bang nearby, and the impact reduced two cars to shattered wrecks. Apparently, the drivers were also staring at the building's walls.

In 2010, the Italian-born, internationally renowned muralist Blu came to Warsaw at the invitation of the Vlep[v]net Foundation and painted seven figures of puppet soldiers on the wall of the Tenement House under the Sailboat (on Sienna Street). Unfortunately, the initially clearly visible mural is becoming increasingly less visible. Below are two photographs of what remains of this fine mural. It truly is a "disappearing element of Warsaw" – a shame.

The tenement house on Sienna Street in all its glory (a new "mural" on the side)
A fragment of the mural on the front wall from the side of Niepodległości Avenue - it is already faded and becoming invisible.
It's interesting why mural art disappears before my eyes, while various hideous wall paintings bloom in bright colors and don't fade. For example, these hideous scribbles visible at the bottom of the wall.

I've just added a few photos from today's "walk." I'm in shock, so the description will appear once I've calmed down. Just so you know, this is Warsaw, Marszałkowska Street between Unii Lubelskiej Square and Zbawiciela Square.

Two weeks have passed, and I've calmed down. I think there's no point in getting so worked up and describing what the photos taken on the last day of September represent. Why? Primarily because even after these past few days, my fingers still crave typing words commonly considered obscene. If I did, I'd essentially be in the same boat as the creatures who so desecrated the center of Warsaw. This time, I'll forgive them and leave the photos without comment.


ATTENTION!!!
DESTRUCTION OF BUILDINGS AND PUBLIC PROPERTY BY APPLYING "GRAFFITI" IS A CRIME PERMITTING A LIBERTY PUNISHMENT.
Article 288. §1. Anyone who destroys, damages, or renders unfit for use another person's property shall be subject to imprisonment for a term of between 3 months and 5 years.











On the opposite side of Marszałkowska Street, commercial property owners, likely fearing their windows would be painted over, are preemptively using graphic elements reminiscent of the scribbles on the other side of the street. This approach seems to be yielding positive results, as there are significantly fewer scribbles.

Once again, I return to the ruins at Rondo ONZ. Two new "paintings" have appeared on the building. Take a look and admire them. They're quite cool.

(The yellow sign reads "Warning: Construction Hazard". The flying creature's briefcase reads: "Happiness in Every Home.")

In Sadyba, on Limanowskiego Street, such a "painting" was created at a vegetable stand.
