Lecture and discussion by Izabela Curyłło-Klag on Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz as a part of the cycle ABC Awangardy: Ikony. Writer, playwright, poet, painter, photographer, philosopher and an art theoretician. Witkacy was a visionary ahead of his times, and yet a concretely pungent prankster, whose cutting-egde judgement and catastrophic prophesies allow new generations to rediscover his work time and again. One of the few Polish artists whose significance for world art history endures the test of time.
