The range of Szukalski's achievements in sculpting, drawing, painting, theorizing, and writing is finally reckoned with in Struggle, the title of both this book and the first major retrospective of his art scheduled for early 2001. The book includes over 100 color and black-and-white photos and illustrations; an essay by Eva Kirsch and Donat Kirsch placing the artist's work in historical and aesthetic context; who knew him; and the artist's commentary on selected works.

"I've been amazed and thrilled by the work of Szukalski." - Drew Friedman, The New Yorker
"Szukalski’s sculptures and drawings were dramatic, monumental, surreal. The title comes from one of his best known works―a tense, sinewy hand with eagle heads emerging out of the fingertips―but also substitutes for the overarching theme of his life." - The Observer

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An overview of the art of Stanislav Szukalski. Szukalski (1893-1987) was one of the great sculptors of the 20th Century. Due to geopolitical upheavals in his native land, 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 rediscovered. This is the first critical view of his work published since 1923, and contains writings, drawings, and photographs of his sculpture. An overview of the art of Stanislav Szukalski, now the focus of a major Netflix documentary. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
