Stanislav Szukalski (1893-1987) was a one-of-a-kind artists who
possess a great talent but do not achieve fame that would be
congruent to that talent. Due to geopolitical upheavals in his
native and Poland a large proportion of his work was destroyed. Yet
thanks to the efforts of a group of dedicated art patrons art
critics, and personal acquaintances, the work of Szukalski is being
re-evaluated and actually shown to the public. This book which will
act as a catalogue for a show of Szukalski's work at the Laguna Art
Museum is the first critical view of his work to come out since
1923. His life and work are examined in a 60 page illustrated essay
by Eva & Donat Kirsch, placing them in historical and art
history context, followed by a selection of works with commentary
by the artist. That commentary gives a first view of the artists
idiosyncratic ideology that is explained in more detail in the last
part of the book, 'Zermatism.'
