The main aim of the present paper is to present the latest achievements in the process of protection of the applied art which was a part of post 1950s architecture in Poland. During the period 1945–1990 many buildings were adorned with different applied art forms: sgraffito, wall paintings, mosaics and other art techniques. The research focuses on the transformation of the society’s approach to applied art after a period of neglect and different forms of protection. In many cases applied art forms like mosaics and ceramic artworks became longer lasting elements than the architecture which they originally adorned. After the demolition of modernist constructions, artworks are frequently transferred to new architecture. This process proves that vita (architecturae) brevis, ars longa.

The number of Polish works connected with Ravenna demonstrates a perennial fascination with the city. Two threads recur in them: Dantean and that emphasizing the art of mosaic, reaching the heights of metaphysics.
