Beschreibung

Early works of Polish sculptor Stanislav Szukalski, presented in a deluxe printed hardcover. The photos in this volume were printed from the original glass negatives taken by the artist between 1913 and 1930. This is the second edition of Stanislav Szukalski's The Lost Tune. The first edition was produced to complement the exhibit Szukalski: The Lost Genius, held between August 3 and October 22, 1990 at the Polish Museum of America in Chicago. With the addition of over a dozen photos, this new edition is a collection of prints of almost all of Szukalski's existing glass negatives. The negatives have been scanned in high resolution and meticulously reproduced and printed. This edition has a larger format than the first edition, and includes a comprehensive article on the historical and artistic merit of Szukalski's early photography.

Autor

A Netflix/Leonardo DiCaprio documentary called "Struggle" tells the remarkable story of his life. Author, sculptor, heretic Stanislav Szukalski was born in Poland in 1893. He came to the United States and lived in Chicago when he was in his teens. He later became a member of the Chicago renaissance luminaries along with Ben Hecht, Carl Sandburg & Clarence Darrow. Szukalski returned to Poland to work on his sculpture, but was stopped by the Siege of Warsaw in 1939. Having lost his entire life's work by the War, he managed to escape to America to live in California, where he continued his work but remained unknown until his death in 1987.
