Nastrojowe czarno-białe zdjęcia autorstwa Wacława Wantucha ukazują piękno kobiecego ciała. Oryginalne, artystyczne ujęcia dyskretnie i ze smakiem eksponują urok nagości, zasłaniając i odsłaniając, kryjąc w cieniu twarze modelek, które stają się anonimowe, ale zarazem niezwykle konkretne. Nie można tu mówić o odindywidualizowaniu, każda z nich ma jakiś znak szczególny, piękne długie blond włosy, tatuaż. Widać pietyzm i szacunek, z jakim fotografik... czytaj więcej
Książka Piotra Skrzypczaka jest bez wątpienia najpoważniejszą pracą poświęconą aktorstwu filmowemu, jaka do tej pory powstała w Polsce, i jak na taką skalę książką jedyną. Cóż bowiem opisywać: aktora, artystę, gwiazdę, człowieka uwikłanego w przemysł kinematograficzny, role itd.? Potencjalna wielość wyborów stanowi w gruncie rzeczy kłopot metodologiczny. Przyjęcie przez autora konstruktu teoretycznego, jakim jest fundamentalna dla książki kategor... czytaj więcej

Published to accompany the travelling exhibition, this catalogue examines key affinities between Matthew Barney and Joseph Beuys who, though separated by generation and geography, share many aesthetic and conceptual concerns. Lavishly illustrated throughout, it focuses on the artists' metaphoric use of materials, their interest in metamorphosis, their employment of narrative structures, and the relationship between action and documentation in the... czytaj więcej
