Summary/Abstract: With the album Słownik polsko-polski by Wojciech Wilczyk (published in 2020) as her point of departure the author examined selected manifestations of the phenomenon of new Polish patriotism, which for more than a decade has been solidifying into a distinctive cultural formation operating with a language (also visual) of its own, as well as possessing patrons and a characteristic set of references and symbols. Apparently, reflections by Marcin Napiórkowski on turbo-patriotism and interpretations proposed by Andrzej Leder prove to be of use in the case of a description of this phenomenon and its origin and make it possible to perceive in Wilczyk’s most recent album a continuation of motifs present in many earlier projects by this artist.
