ABSTRACT
This article represents how Polish modern architecture was presented in the Polish feature films of the 1960s. The analysis of the research material carried out herein included Polish cinema films made in the territory of Poland and focused on contemporary spatial reality of the times, with the account for the image of the post-war architecture and urban planning. Preliminary chapters discuss the selected films and present detailed analysis of the research material. Accounting for the specifics of the analysed issues, the period of the studies was fixed for the period from 1960 to 1970 as that period was very interesting for the history of Polish architecture – it was then when many iconic buildings were erected. Owing to the very selection of the aforementioned cinema films we were able to track down the transformations in the phenomenon under our discussion and analysis and to describe the findings in the next chapters. In case of detailed research the attention was focused among others on the presentation of Polish modern architecture in the film as an element of national heritage of the epoch in the broad meaning thereof. Furthermore, the topic of urbanism and how an image of an architect changed in the Polish feature films of the 1960s was also included in our studies. Conclusions sum up the issue of the manner of presentation of modern architecture in the film image as a creative process, inspired with other areas, rooted in the local background of the film makers, with architects among them.
