Stadion X-lecia (the 10th Anniversary Stadium) is no longer, and its sole trace is a hole in the ground...This text, a commentary to the book Stadion X: Miejsce, którego nie bylo (ed. J. Warsza), delves into the symbolic presence/absence of the Stadium in an attempt at conceptualising the tension between its modernist, monumental architecture and disintegration (which could be perceived as a form of entropy - a phenomenon which stirred the interest of artists (R. Smithson) and philosophers (G. Bataille)).
