520 $aThe Struggle for Form: Perspectives on Polish Avant-Garde Film 1916-1989 is the first comprehensive account of the Polish avant-grade film in English from its beginning in the early decades of the last century to the collapse of communism in 1989. Taking a broad understanding of avant-garde film, this collection includes writings on the pioneering work of the internationally acclaimed Franciszka and Stefan Themerson; the Polish Futurists' (Jalu Kurek, Anatol Stern) engagement with film; The Thaw and animation(Jan Lenica and Walerian Borowczyk, Andrzej Pawlowski, Zbigniew Rybczynski;) documentary (Natalia Brzozowska, Kazimierz Karabasz, Wojciech Wiszniewski), Polish émigré filmmakers (Roman Polan Jerzy Skolimowski, Andrzej Zulawski) as well as essays and documentation on the widely known Film Form Workshop (Józef Robakowski, Ryszard Wasko, Wojciech Bruszewski). Including the mixture of historical writing from early film magazines with commissioned eassays, this book constitutes an important source on the rich, complex and influential history of the Polish film avant-garde, which is presented from the perspective of both British (A.L. Ress, Jonathan Owen, Michael O'Pary) and Polish (Marcin GiZycki, Ryszard Kluszczynski, Kamila Kuc) authorities on the Subject. This volume is thus an indispensable introduction to the theories and practices of critically important avant-garde artists and filmmakers. Book jacket.
