Tadeusz Kantor Today: Metamorphoses of Death, Memory and Presence- Translated by Anda MacBride, 1st Edition

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.Tadeusz Kantor Today: Metamorphoses of Death, Memory and Presence- Translated by Anda MacBride 1st Edition is written by Fazan, Katarzyna / Burzy?ska, Anna Ró?a / Bry?, Marta and published by Peter Lang GmbH, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften.
