Alina Szapocznikow: Sculpture Undone, 19551972
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A Compact But Thorough Retrospective Of The Work Of Polish Sculptor Alina Szapocznikow A Sculptor Who Began Working During The Postwar Period In A Classical Figurative Style, Alina Szapocznikow Radically Reconceptualized Sculpture As An Imprint Not Only Of Memory But Of Her Own Body. Though Her Career Effectively Spanned Less Than Two Decades (Cut Short By The Artists Premature Death In 1973 At Age 47), Szapocznikow Left Behind A Legacy Of Provocative Objects That Evoke Surrealism, Nouveau Ralisme And Pop Art. Her Tinted Polyester Casts Of Body Parts, Often Transformed Into Everyday Objects Like Lamps Or Ashtrays; Her Poured Polyurethane Forms; And Her Elaborately Constructed Sculptures, Which At Times Incorporated Photographs, Clothing Or Car Parts, All Remain As Wonderfully Idiosyncratic And Culturally Resonant Today As When They Were First Made. Wellknown In Poland, Where Her Work Has Been Highly Influential Since Early In Her Career, Szapocznikows Compelling Oeuvre Is Ripe For Arthistorical Reexamination. Alina Szapocznikow: Sculpture Undone, 19551972 Offers A Comprehensive Overview Of This Important Artists Work At A Moment When International Interest Is Blossoming. Richly Illustrated With Over 150 Color Plates, The Catalogue Features Essays That Touch On Key Aspects Of Her Practice And Historical Reception, As Well As An Extensive Annotated Chronology That Provides An Indepth Exploration Of The Intersection Of Her Life And Art. Working In One Of The Most Rich And Complex Periods Of The Twentieth Century, Szapocznikow Responded To Many Of The Ideological And Artistic Developments Of Her Time Through Artwork That Is At Once Fragmented And Transformative, Sensual And Reflective, Playfully Realized And Politically Charged.Alina Szapocznikow Was Born In Poland In 1926, And Gained Critical Attention There For Her Early Sculpture Of The 1950S. She Resettled Permanently In France In 1963, Where Her Continued Exploration Of New Materials Such As Polyester And Polyurethane Brought Her Into Dialogue With The Contemporary Art Scene Of Her Time. She Continued To Push The Boundaries Of Sculptural Form And Subject Matter Up Until Her Premature Death In 1973.
