Abstract
Uninhabited building can be recognize as a symptom of ongoing changes. Emptiness of large architectural structures in the city is like a kind of state of emergency, and sign of crisis and decay. From the other hand uninhabited building can give hope for a new beginning and a new order. Duration where building is uninhabited becomes kind of liminal event for the urban community. Surprisingly the vacancy can have emancipator and anty-hieratic potential. Can trigger a public discussion about the situation of the district, the entire city and right to the city. In postindustial Łódź Uninhabited building are sanctioned by many historical artistic events as a place “for culture”. Article presents a specific moment that occurred the first decade of the twenty-first century, describing dissonance between the wishful thinking of business and municipal authorities and real situation of shrinking city. Uninhabited buildings became a catalyst, symbolic material and infrastructure for artists and activists who beeing involved in the actions focused on citizens right and protection of valuable resources.
