A member of the first Krakow Group and Cricot 2 Theatre, Jadwiga Maziarska (1913–2003) created "matter paintings," collages, wax reliefs and sculptures that were influenced by science, phenomenology, mass photography and newspaper clippings. This comprehensive monograph reintroduces one of the most important voices of the Polish avant-garde.
