The sixth book in the series "Architecture is the most important" by EMG Publishing House will have its premiere on November 22. The latest volume is dedicated to pioneer women - pioneers of urban planning and architecture in modern Poland.
"Pioneer Women" is a response to the wishes of readers, who, after reading the second volume of the series entitled "Architektki", encouraged the publishing house to continue the topic of women's participation in the creation of Polish architectural culture.
"Pioneer Women" is a collection of essays by Hanna Faryna-Paszkiewicz, Grażyna Hryncewicz-Lamber, Marta Leśniakowska, Joanna Majczyk, Małgorzata Omilanowska (introduction), Grzegorz Piątek and Agnieszka Tomaszewicz about the pioneers of urban planning and architecture in modern Poland. About women who, although forgotten in these fields, contributed to their development: Anna Ptaszycka, Wanda Krahelska, Wanda Melcer, Gizella Marguliesówna and Teresa Chmura-Pełech.
The series of EMG publications is dedicated to the memory of Professor Tomasz Mańkowski, who died in 2012.
