Editing Orange Alternative (section)

==Dwarves==
The first known actions of the Orange Alternative consisted of painting dwarf graffiti on spots created by the [[Milicja Obywatelska|police]]'s covering up anti-regime slogans on walls of the Polish cities. The first graffiti was painted by Major Waldemar Fydrych and Wiesław Cupała on the night from 30 to 31 August 1982 on one of the residences in the Wrocław district of Biskupin and Sępolno.

Altogether more than one thousand of such graffiti were painted in the major Polish cities such as Wrocław, [[Kraków]], [[Warsaw]], [[Łódź]], and [[Gdańsk]].
Dwarves appearing in numbers all over Poland aroused the interest of both [[Polish people|Polish]] pedestrians and the militia, whose intervention led to short term arrests of the graffiti artists.

During one of these incidents, Major, a detainee at a police station in Łódź, proclaimed, in reference to the [[Marxist]] and [[Hegelian]] [[dialectics]], yet another artistic manifesto and referred to his graffiti art as "[[dialectical materialism|dialectic]] painting" stating: "The Thesis is the Anti-Regime Slogan. The Anti-thesis is the Spot and the Synthesis is the Dwarf. Quantity evolves into Quality. The more Dwarves there are, the better it is."<ref name="album" />
