The Praesens group was founded on the initiative of the architect Szymon Syrkus who was joined by the fellow architects Józef Szanajca and Bohdan Lachert, painters and former members of Blok, Władysław Strzemiński and Henryk Stażewski, and sculptor Katarzyna Kobro.
In June 1926, the group published the first issue of its magazine, of the same title Praesens. Syrkus outlined the programme of the group, “By way of experiment, the architectonic approach provides new opportunities, not only artistic as it might seem, but also social. For architecture changes the social pattern, as the social pattern changes architecture.” The second issue followed in May 1930. Many articles of the international avant-garde appeared in the journal.
In October 1926, the group opened its first exhibition in Zacheta Gallery in Warsaw. A year later, in 1927, the group co-organized the Machine-Age Exposition in New York City showcasing the works of its members, Stanisław Brukalski, Józef Malinowski, Strzemiński, Syrkus, Henryk Oderfeld, Lachert, Lech Niemojewski, Stażewski, and Szanajca.
Just as previously in the Blok group, different views regarding art were upheld by the architects and by Strzemiński and his friends, Stażewski and Kobro. Strzemiński yet again dismissed the utilitarian basis of the architects’ programme and left the group in 1929. Stażewski and Kobro soon followed him.
