Alina Szapocznikow

Alina Szapocznikow has left a unique legacy of sculptures and drawings, which she created in both the Communist East and in the West. At the heart of her oeuvre is the human body, which according to the artist, a Holocaust survivor, is probably the most sensitive among all the manifestations of volatility as a source of joy, sorrow and truth. 
Szapocznikow’s works have really only been visible in their totality in the last ten years. This first comprehensive publication in German, English and Polish provides an overview of the life and work of the artist.
