Anna Wancław

Dr. Anna Wancław is a Professor at the Department of Visual Arts, Faculty of Architecture, Gdańsk University of Technology. Her work focuses on the history of architecture, education systems, and descriptive geometry. She has contributed significantly to understanding the educational legacy of Polish technical institutions, particularly the Lviv School of Architects.

Research Interests: Her research spans the history of architectural education, the evolution of descriptive geometry in Polish academia, and the intersection of historical techniques with modern geometric analysis. Notably, she has challenged assumptions about entasis curves in classical architecture, proving their non-elliptical nature.

Publications: Her 2018 study traces Gdańsk Tech's continuity with Lviv's educational traditions. Earlier works (2013-2014) critically analyze entasis construction methods. The 2005 article examines 19th-century architectural pedagogy in Lviv, highlighting programmatic and organizational aspects.

Awards/Grants: No specific awards or grants listed in the provided texts.

Labs/Teams: No dedicated labs or teams explicitly mentioned, though her work likely intersects with historical studies groups within the Faculty of Architecture.
