While writing this article, the author was inspired by “Między chwilą a pięknem. O sztuce w rozpędzonym świecie” by Zygmunt Bauman. Following Baumanian diagnosis of the contemporary art we are faced with the condition of our contemporary world. The main feature we can observe in both areas seems to be their ‘liquidity’. In this liquid context the author of the article focuses on contemporary architecture, which was omitted by Zygmunt Bauman. It appears that the most fixed, palpable and sturdy type of art also may assume a kind of liquid form – as in the case of so called ‘folding’, ‘downy’, or ‘pleated’ architecture proposed by Bernard Tschumi or Peter Eisenman who are strongly inspired by philosophical thoughts of Friedrich Nietzsche, Gilles Deleuze, or Jacques Derrida.
