The following is an excerpt from the official website for the film Warszawa 1935; click here for link to the films official website:

Warsaw is a city very painfully experienced by history. For being the center of important and dramatic events of the Second World War has paid the ultimate price – almost ceased to exist. Disappeared respected cultural center, disappeared impressive classicist palaces, art nouveau buildings, parks. She’s gone all the infrastructure considered before the war as one of the most modern in Europe.

On the ruins of an entirely new Warsaw – the memory of the old closed in albums and memories of the residents. Today, no one is even able to imagine how impressive and inspiring was the city ..

On my own eyes!
We give you Warsaw, they do not know! For the first time after 66 years! Throughout the pre-war architectural splendor of the metropolis! A meticulously reconstructed in 3D! See the city, which before the war was enchanted the whole of Europe, calling it a Paris of the North!

The project of reconstruction of Warsaw in 3D technology is the work of studying animation and vfx Newborn with the Praga district. The originator, Thomas Gomola, already three years ago planned to reconstruct the historic original building in Warsaw and recreate the unique atmosphere of the city. He thus wished to restore the memory of the former glory of the Polish capital. However, only the studio Newborn and napping in his band made a huge creative potential that the idea of ​​rebuilding becomes final, the impressive shape. Work on the “Warsaw 1935” lasted nearly three years. The scale and breadth of this project is the fact that it is a project without precedent. No one had ever made such a challenge.

Newborn planned and carried out the entire production process, from the very start acting without fanfare. Everything you see will soon come to life …

25th Anniversary of The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) – Ohio Arts Council Series of Interviews – Arts + Accessibility: Spotlight on Andrew Reach

My Spouse, Andrew Reach, who lost his career as a successful architect due to becoming disabled from a spine disease, reinvented himself as a Fine Artist and has become nationally recognized for his work. We moved from Miami to Cleveland to be in the care of a specialist in his spine disease (Scheuermann’s disease). We have been living here for 8 years now. Over the years, Andrew has applied for and won grants from a program through the Ohio Arts Council, “Artists With Disabilities Access Program”. In Addition, Andrew’s work was included in a group exhibition, “Lets Get Digital”, at the Ohio Arts Council’s Riffe Gallery in Columbus featuring digital artists in the state of Ohio.Andrew Reach in front of the work "Getting Up" at Cleveland Clnic Lutheran HospitalAndrew Reach with his artwork “Getting Up” at the Cleveland Clinic”
