Her tireless investigation of unconventional materials and forms marks her as a pioneering artist who--alongside Benglis, Bourgeois and Hesse--made fundamental contributions to contemporary sculpture. This bilingual (English\/German) monograph centers around 13 brief texts on her works by renowned scholars, addressing such key topics as casting, erotic objects, memory, fragmented bodies and plasticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alina Szapocznikow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3991531836\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783991531838\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verlag Fur Moderne Kunst\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 9.40w x 1.10d","brand":"Alina Szapocznikow","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48748358762751,"sku":"9783991531838","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_daa9878b-2bc1-4034-80e2-eb2fb9215a87.jpg?v=1782628959","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alina-szapocznikow-alina-szapocznikow-9783991531838","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
