This book comprises the latest revisiting of Kantor’s artistic œuvre by international authors reflecting drawings, paintings, manifestos and theatrical productions. Comparative studies enrich the variety of interpretative perspectives. Authors demonstrate what Kantor’s legacy has in common with the works of other 20th- and 21st-century artists.
This book is a compendium of texts by international authors which reflect on Tadeusz Kantor’s art in a broad range of contexts. The studies include works of prominent art historians, theatrologists and artists. The present revisiting of Kantor’s artistic œuvre reflects a contemporary historiographic approach. The authors place value on individual memory and consider contemporary art outside the traditional boundaries of particular artistic genres. The studies employ the latest strategies for researching theatrical performance as autonomous statements, without a literary anchor. Thanks to this approach, the eschatological and historical issues, crucial to the sphere of reference of Kantor’s Theatre of Death, have acquired a new presence – as art that liberates thinking in the here-and-now.
