A Companion to Contemporary Art Since 1945
A Companion to Contemporary Art is a major survey covering the major works and movements, the most important theoretical developments, and the historical, social, political, and aesthetic issues in contemporary art since 1945, primarily in the Euro-American context. Collects 27 original essays by expert scholars describing the current state of scholarship in art history and visual studies, and pointing to future directions in the field.

Ephemeral Coast: Visualizing Coastal Climate Change
"Ephemeral Coast - Visualizing Coastal Climate Change" considers the ways that art can offer a means through which to discover, analyze, re-imagine and re-frame emotive discourses about the ecological and cultural transformations of the coastline. This edited anthology takes ephemerality as its central conceptual and methodological framework and presents a series of essays that create interconnections between environmental and social considerations of the coast, a succession of embodied creative practices, and shifting regional geographic identities. The book presents a series of specific case studies of artistic practices and strategies that seek to capture the rewriting of cartographic map...

Gry sztuki z architekturą
Książka, wpisująca się we wciąż aktualne w dobie „postmedializmu” dyskusje o rozmywaniu się granic sztuk, stawia pytanie o miejsce architektury w nowoczesnych systemach sztuk pięknych i we współczesnych definicjach sztuk wizualnych. Inspiracją do podjęcia tych rozważań stały się współczesne praktyki artystyczne, w których wyłania się wyraźnie nurt zainteresowania architekturą oraz sposobami architektonicznej reprezentacji. Współczesne integracje są ukazane na tle dawnych powinowactw, a zwłaszcza na tle osiemnastowiecznej krytyki doktryny ut pictura poesis,nowoczesnych systemów sztuk pięknych, często marginalizujących architekturę, dziewiętnastowiecznego p...
Kolekcja
Kolekcja to nie tylko zbiór dzieł – to opowieść o podróży przez życie i sztukę. Borysław Czyżak z wrażliwością i głębią wprowadza nas w świat ośmiu wybitnych postaci: Magdaleny Abakanowicz, Marii Anto, Zuzanny Janin, Kojego Kamojego, Jarosława Modzelewskiego, Erny Rosenstein, Henryka Stażewskiego i Wacława Taranczewskiego. Choć minimalistyczną twórczość Kamojego od surrealistycznych wizji Rosenstein zdaje się dzielić niemal wszystko, bohaterki i bohaterowie książki tworzyli w tych samych czasach. Nie potrzebowali jednolitego programu – łączyły ich wspólnota doświadczeń i więzy przyjaźni. W tej wciągającej biografii pokolenia Czyżak odmalowuje nie ...

Das unmögliche Theater
Tadeusz Kantor, who lived from 1915 to1990, was one of Poland's most important artists: he painted, created, directed, mounted happenings and founded a key independent theater in Krakow. Along with his own works on paper, objects, photographs and films, The Impossible Theater brings us his descendents, artists of the younger generation, represented by installations, performances and projects. Like Kantor, they cast themselves in roles that call for mediation in the social world.
