J'ai Perdu La Fin!!!: Edward Krasinski and Eustachy Kossakowski: Captured Happenings

J'ai Perdu La Fin!!!: Edward Krasinski and Eustachy Kossakowski: Captured Happenings

Patrick Komorowski
0/5 ( ratings)
This book presents an in-depth study of the highly original collaboration between two outstanding Polish artists of the post-war the legendary conceptual artist Edward Krasinski and the photographer Eustachy Kossakowski. Both artists were central protagonists of the Foksal Gallery in Warsaw, founded in 1966 as a sphere of groundbreaking experimentation in the Communist era. The creative interaction and exchange between Edward Krasinski and Eustachy Kossakowski spans from 1964 ? 1970 when the latter immigrated to Paris. Krasinski developed in these years his seminal concept of the ?Blue Line?, a strip of scotch tape extending horizontally in a given space. In 1964 Krasinski enacted his piece Spear in a field, which was the first ?happening? his friend Kossakowski, originally a reportage photographer, captured with his camera. The illusion the artists created in the remaining photo series was much like he would enact in his pivotal piece J'ai Perdu La Fin!!! in which he pretends to have ?lost the end? of a cable cord. This exciting publication in collaboration with Broadway 1602, New York, presents Krasinski?s ?happenings? and mise en scènes in the first comprehensive volume focusing specifically on his partnership with Kossakowski. Never intended for an audience, they were strictly composed for Kossakowski?s camera resulting in an original marriage of conceptual restrain and laconic humour.
