These WWW pages are made to introduce you to
<B>The Centre for Contemporary Art</B>
in Warsaw. They show what is happening
there and give an impression of the modern art climate in Eastern Europe.
The information presented here is provided by the department which is
responsible for documentation and information. All photographs in this
document are taken from their collection.<BR>
<B>The Ujazdowski Castle</B> is stands on the site of a 13th-century stronghold of Mazovian princes,
later transformed into a hunting-lodge. In 1624 king Zygmunt III of the Vasa dynasty used
the location to erect a castle in the baroque manner. The building, frequently reconstructed,
in the 18th century became a part of a military barracks and then of the Ujazdowski Hospital
, burnt down during the Warsaw Uprising. In 1954 the remaining walls were blown up; the
reconstruction of the residence started twenty years later, in 1974, and in 1981 the castle was
given over to the Centre for Contemporary Art.<P>
