Critical Comments Environment made on the site of the exhibition as part of the "II Wystawa Sztuki Nowoczesnej" at the Central Bureau of Artistic Exhibitions, Warsaw, 1957.

Quotes The organisation of the space using pre-stressed concave-convex fibreboards painted in black or white. The composition begins outside the Zachęta building with a black panel suspended above the entrance staircase, continues inside in the hall above the main staircase and ends in the hall on the first floor with a spatial connection of two panels: a white one on the floor and a black one suspended above it.
