Grzegorz Jankowicz What Is Art for? Conversations with Writers, Part 2
Grzegorz Jankowicz tells a riveting story of the relations between two kinds of art. The volume of interviews presents views on the connections between art and literature of renowned Polish writers and poets of the young, middle and older generations (including Marek Bieńczyk, Jacek Dehnel, Darek Foks, Piotr Paziński, Piotr Sommer, Andrzej Sosnowski, Agnieszka Taborska and Magdalena Tulli).
All the interlocutors talk vividly about the matters close to their heart. However, this is also an unusual narrative about 20th-century literature and art and their interconnections; understanding these will have a tremendous impact on the future development of both art disciplines. What does visual art have in common with literature? That is the question to which the present volume provides a number of inspirational answers.
The book by Grzegorz Jankowicz is the second in the series What Is Art for? and part of a project of the same title, produced by MOCAK.
