New means of transport and communication allowed unprecedented mobility of people, goods and ideas in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, which contributed to far-reaching economic, social and political changes in a first wave of globalisation. In its genuine transnationality, the European historical avant-garde can be seen as a product of this development. Cosmpolitanism, internationality and internationalism became emblems of the avant-garde in its pursuit of a 'new', modern international culture trangressing 'old' borders and limitations dictated by conceptions of nationhood, linguistic restrictions, and state boundaries. Simultaneously, national and nationalist reflexes can be traced in the avant-garde as well - in a European context marked by a plethora of competing nationalisms. This collection of essays focuses on the transnationality and inter-nationalisms in the European avant-garde as well as on conflicts, paradoxes and debates in the avant-gar...

Artists and writers of the Modernism were fascinated in the figure of the charismatic creative person acting in the cultural and political scene, such as romantic prophets or constructivist engineers of society. In the Polish context this idea was widely popular within the nation without the state for which in the 19th and 20th centuries intellectual understood as national genius replaced the nonexistent political leader.
This paper concerns representative cases of the artists - "magicians" or “mentors” as national leaders in the Polish context.

This paper is a compact analysis of the three phases of the expressionism in the Polish art.
Scholars distinguish three phases of expressionism in Poland: an anticipated symbolic art nou-veau about 1900; an explicitly programmatic expressionism, beginning near the end of the First World  War  and  lasting  only  three  to  four  years;  and  a  third,  historical,  late  expressionism  in  the 1930s. The first includes the work of artists such as Mikołaj Konstanty Czurlanis (Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis), Wojciech Weiss (inspired by Edvard Munch), and Stanisław Wyspiański Witkacy (compared to James Ensor) and writings by Stanisław Przybyszewski, Wacław Berent, and Tadeusz Miciński. Late expressionism of the 1920s and 1930s was identified with the visual and literary œuvre of Bruno Schulz and the poetry of the Czartak group.8 These two nonhis-torical phases of implicit expressionism were both more highly valued by Polish art historians than the third phase of expressionism, which ran parallel to the second generation in Germany.9Expressive and expressionist tendencies in Polish art are present still in contemporary art, in part as a programmatic neoexpressionism in the work of artists inspired by Bunt, in part as a movement similar to the Neue Wilde (New Wild Artists) in Germany of the 1980s and later

This paper is  a monographical study of the Polish artists’ output of forming the profile of  Der Sturm’s gallery and magazine based on the archival studies.

Similiar article in German was published in 2011 in the catalogue of the Sturm-Exhibittion in Wuppertal accessible in this profile.

A modified English version appeared in Centropa in 2012, also accessible in this profile.

There exists also a shortened, modified Russian version.

Summary:
Polish avant-garde from the closest circle of “Der Sturm” comprises ten artists including one woman only. None of them represented official art, what comes as a characteristic feature of the group. Admittedly, since 1920 Marcoussis collabo-rated with the “Formiści” magazine, in which Polish national style was establis-hed. Among “Der Sturm” co-workers connected with Poland were: a mystic of a sex – Flaum, a believer in Cubist fourth dimension – Marcoussis, an engineer and anthroposopher – Stückgold, “a cosmic Communist” and one of the pioneers of ecological stream in art – Kubicki, imagination engineers – Szczuka, Żarnower (and most certainly Stażewski) together with Berlewi, as well as a painter-scenographer – Krassowski. As a parspro toto of the international avant-garde in “Der Sturm” gallery and magazine, they indicate ideological and stylistic art spectrum, promoted occasionally against personal preferences of Herwarth Walden and anticipating development of his artistic likes.

What is striking about nearly all of the mentioned above artists (except for Szczuka) that they can be described as “transfrontaliers” or “of multiethnic identity”. Their multinational identity was either Polish-German (Flaum and Kubicki), or Polish-Jewish (Stückgold and Żarnower), or Polish-French-Jewish (Markus/Marcoussis  and  Berlewi),  or  Polish-Austrian-Jewish  (Rittner).  This was the reason for their achievements having been long enough marginalised in the national art history what resulted in shortcomings in documentary. Only recently they have been gaining back their place in the international avant--garde historiography. Their biographies confirm with these examples the Eastern European artists contribution to the development of “Der Sturm” empire in the first, before-war period of its existence, but also the ideological-artistic re-orienteering of this institution in the second period – after the WW1, and in the third one – after the mid 1920s. They demonstrate on the one hand a delicate question of national historiography, which retouched the fact that art, even in Poland after creating “a new state” in 1918, was actually multiethnic and multicultural. On the other hand they document representatively multinational identification of the artists active at that time (not only in Europe).

The following case study, written from the post national, post historic and post colonial perspective, is aimed not only at completing shortcomings in docu-mentation of national and above national art historiography thanks to the latest source research, but also at accentuating the need of deconstruction of traditio-nal methods and research concepts in reference to the art of not solely European “outskirts” and the areas of intensive migration.

The paper includes a comparative analysis of the origins and meaning of the painting of Munch and the  novel of Stanislaw Przybyszewski of the same title.  The other focus are influences of Munch's oeuvre on the art prints of the Poznan based expressionist group Bunt (Revolt) and Przybyszewski's theoretical statements on expressionism.

This  essay  focuses  on  the  so-called  Poznań  expressionism—a  unique  manifestation  of  the  expressionist artistic style that existed in parallel to the second generation of German expression-ism, during the interwar period. It  concerns the history of the literary-artistic group Bunt (Revolt) and the polemics on the cathegorization of it and its circle as Expressionist and as a local/national phenomenon.

Herwarth Walden, the founder of the famous gallery and art magazine Der Sturm, described Berlin as the "Hauptstadt der Vereinigten Staaten von Europa." In the first three decades of the 20th century it became the most important metropolis in East Central Europe, which attracted artists from the whole region and from the European peripheries, especially those who were closer to the international utopia of the new world than to the particular concepts of new states and national art, among them numerous painters, architects, and writers from Poland.The Nestor of the Polish avant-garde in Berlin was Stanisław Przybyszewski, who in 1894 published the first monograph of work by Edvard Munch and the first on theory of Expressionism avant la lettre, based on his work, which he called Psychical Naturalism.The most spectacular presentation of Polish new art in the capital of Germany was the special issue of the magazine Die Aktion called "Polnische Kunst" [Polish Art] and the exhibition of the group Bunt [PL: Revolt; DE: Colourful,

Der „fremde Krieg“ und der „neue Staat“
Polnische Kunst 1914–1918
Der Erste Weltkrieg war für die polnische Kunst eine Zeit des Umbruchs,
aber auch des Rückgriffs auf die Tradition. Künstler und Literaten verarbeiteten
ihre Erfahrungen als Soldaten nicht nur dokumentarisch, sondern
pflegten auch die romantische, retrospektive Utopie einer Wiederbelebung
der alten Adelsrepublik. Gleichzeitig halfen sie der Politik, den
neuen Staat gedanklich vorwegzunehmen. Auch in Polen gab es Debatten
um die „neue Form“ in der Kunst. Doch die verzwickte geopolitische
Lage Polens, der weiter um seine Grenzen kämpfte, führte in der Kunst
und Literatur zu einer Nationalisierung der modernen Form. Die internationalistische
Avantgarde wurde in Polen nie Mode; zur Visitenkarte des
neuen Staates wurde ein an der Volkskunst orientierter „nationaler Stil“.

Kraszewskiego of Drezno, Dolnośląskie Centrum Kultury i Sztuki in Wrocław, co-financed by the Foundation of the Polish-German Cooperation.

It includes e.g my own papers and the intreview which I conducted with the owner of the art prints and other art pieces donated to the National Museum in Poznan and the Distric Museum in Bydgoszcz, Professor St. Karol Kubicki. This review concerns the history of his collection and the international artistic relationships of his parents, Margarete and Stanislaw Kubicki, the mediators between the Polish and german/international artistic scene.

The great value of the book are the reproductions of the art prints whithout frames, which allow to see the signatures, inscriptions and the state of the paper, they were printed on.
My input was to produce an idea of the whole book and to collect the source materials. I wrote the two essays and interviewed the donor as well as translated 80% of the text into both languages German and Polish. Agnieszka Salamon-Radecka was the co-author of the list of the exhibits  and of the commentary on this list (altogether  5 p.) and Prof. Wojciech Suchocki an introduction (3 p.)

FRAGMENT OF THE REVIEW:
Ogrody/Gärten to publikacja (i wystawa), która buduje nową wartość w tym, co już artystyczne (Parku Mużakowskim), a podejmując dyskurs na temat ogrodów, wprowadza go na metapoziom, w którym ogród nabiera wymiaru ideowego i metaforycznego zarazem. O ogrodach w ogrodzie, o krajobrazach w krajobrazach – mówić można tylko obrazami i metaforami. Ta publikacja otwiera taką możliwość, rozbrzmiewając na trzech poziomach: teoretycznym, artystycznym i ideowym, jeżeli za ideę uznać naturalne medium Parku Mużakowskiego.
Prof. UAM dr hab. Beata Frydryczak, Uniwersytet Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Instytut Kultury Europejskiej UAM w Gnieźnie

Gärten/Ogrody ist eine Veröffentlichung (und Ausstellung), welche einen neuen Wert in dem schafft, was künstlerisch schon vorhanden ist (also im Muskauer Park), und einen Diskurs über Gärten nicht nur einleitet, sondern diesen sogleich auf eine Metaebene hebt, auf welcher ein Garten eine ideelle und gleichzeitig eine metaphorische Dimension innehat. Über Gärten im Garten zu sprechen, über Landschaften in Landschaften – das kann man nur in Bildern und Metaphern. Dieses Buch eröffnet die Möglichkeit dazu auf drei Ebenen zugleich – auf der theoretischen, der künstlerischen und der ideellen, sofern man das natürliche Medium des Muskauer Parks als Idee betrachtet.

DEUTSCH
Das bildende und literarische Werk von Margarete (1891-1984) und Stanislaw (1889-1942?)Kubicki gehört zu den interessantesten Phänomenen polnischer und europäischer Kunst der Zwischenkriegszeit. Kubicki wurde zum herausragendsten Vertreter des Expressionismus und ersten konsequenten abstrakten Maler in Polen. Er gehörte gleichzeitig zu den Wegbereitern der prometheischen Strömung der polnischer Avantgarde, die die Utopie des neuen Menschen und der neuen Gemeinschaft lebte. Die Aquarellfolgen von Margarete Kubicka bestechen mit der Transparenz der Farbe, womit sie die Werke Delaunays i Jawlenskys in Erinnerung rufen. Die Zeichnungen, Linolschnitte und Gemälde ihres Mannes erinnern von der formellen Disziplin her an die geometrische Abstraktion eines Malewitsch und Mondrians, und verraten die Affinität Kubickis zur Naturwissenschaft und Philosophie. Die beiden Kubickis vermittelten Kontakte zwischen der Posener Expressionistenvereinigung  Bunt(Revolte) (1917-1922), die sich um die Kunstzeitschrift „Zdrój” (Quelle) gruppierte, und der Berliner Kunstzeitschrift und Galerie „Die Aktion”. Sie initiierten die Verlags- und Ausstellungskontakte polnischer Künstler in Deutschland. Ende 1918 reisten sie nach Berlin aus, wo sie sich dem dortigem Kunstleben angeschlossen haben. Ihre graphischen und literarischen Werke erschienen in den Zeitschriften „Der Sturm”, „Der Weg”, „Die Bücherkiste” und „a bis z”. 1920 stellte Kubicki als einer der wenigen polnischen Kunstschaffenden seine Arbeiten in der renommiertesten Galerie der Avantgarde „Der Sturm”. 1922 vertraten die beiden Kubickis Polen auf dem Kongress der Union Fortschrittlicher Internationaler Künstlerin Düsseldorf, dem wichtigsten Auftritt der polnischen Avantgarde in der Zwischenkriegszeit, dem Initiationsmoment der sogenannten Konstruktivistischen Internationale. Im selben Jahr organisierten sie auch in Berlin die Internationale Ausstellung revolutionärer Künstler. 1922 waren się Mitbegründer der Gruppe Die Kommune, und 1923der Gruppe progressiver Künstler, mit der sie ihre Werke in verschiedenen Städten Deutschlands und in Chicago ausgestellt haben. Die Kubickis wirkten vor allem im internationalen Künstlerkreis Berlins und kooperierten u.a. mit den Dadaisten Johannes Baader und Raoul Hausmann. Zu ihrem Bekanntenkreis zählten auch Schauspieler von Erwin Piscators Theater, sowie Maler Georg Grosz, Marc Chagall, Kasimir Malewitsch oder der herausragende Fotograf August Sander. Ihr Atelierwurde zu einer Begegnungsstätte von Expressionisten der Gruppe Bunt aus Posen und der Jung Idysz aus Łódź. Vorübergehend wohnten und schufen dort Jankel Adler, Pola Lindenfeld und Artur Nacht-Samborski. Nach der Machtergreifung Hitlers begab sich Kubicki nach Polen und während des Zweiten Weltkriegs wirkte als Kurier der polnischen Widerstandsbewegung. 1942 wurde er im Gefängnis Pawiak zu Tode gefoltert. Kubicka überlebte den Krieg und konnte zahlreiche Werke ihres Mannes und der gemeinsamen Künstlerfreunden retten. Sie blieb künstlerisch bis zu ihrem Tode im Jahre 1984 tätig.

Nur in den letzten Jahren wurden Werke der Kubickis u.a. in Los Angeles, Posen, Breslau, Brüssel oder Toulon, und vor kurzem auf der Ausstellung „Wir Berliner. Geschichte einer deutsch-polnischen Nachbarschaft“ gezeigt. Eine retrospektive Schauihres Schaffens wird zur Zeit im Nationalmuseum Warschau vorbereitet. Der Sohn von Margarete und Stanislaw Kubicki, Professor S. Karol Kubicki, war Mitbegründer und der erste immatrikulierte Student der Freien Universität zu Berlin.

POLSKI
Twórczość plastyczna i literacka Margarete (1891-1984) i Stanisława (1889-1942?) Kubickich zaliczana jest do najciekawszych zjawisk polskiej i europejskiej sztuki okresu międzywojennego. Kubickiego charakteryzowano jako najwybitniejszego przedstawiciela ekspresjonizmu i pierwszego konsekwentnego abstrakcjonistę w Polsce, a także za jednego z prekursorów prometejskiego nurtu polskiej awangardy, żyjącej utopią nowego człowieka i nowej wspólnoty. Serie akwarel Margarete Kubickiej urzekają świetlistością barw przywodzącą na myśl dzieła Delaunaya i Jawlensky’ego. Wyraziste formalnie rysunki, linoryty i obrazy jej męża, bliskie abstrakcji geometrycznej Malewicza i Mondriana,ujawniają jego pasję przyrodoznawczą i filozoficzną.Oboje Kubiccy pośredniczyli w kontaktach poznańskiej ekspresjonistycznej grupy Bunt(1917-1922),skupionej wokół czasopisma artystycznego Zdrój, i berlińskiego pisma oraz galerii Die Aktion. Zainicjowali wydawnicze i wystawiennicze kontakty artystów polskich w Niemczech. Z końcem 1918 r.wyjechali do Berlina, gdzie właczyli się w tamtejsze życie artystyczne. Ich prace graficzne i literackie ukazywały się w „Der Sturm”, „Der Weg”, „Die Bücherkiste” i w „a bis z”. W 1920 r. Kubicki jako jeden z nielicznych polskich twórców wystawiał w najsłynniejszej galerii awangardy Der Sturm. W 1922 roku oboje Kubiccy reprezentowali Polskę na Kongresie Międzynarodowej Unii Artystów Postępowych w Düsseldorfie, najważniejszym wystąpieniu polskiej awangardy w okresie międzywojennym, zapoczątkowującym istnienie tzw. Międzynarodówki Konstruktywistycznej. W tymże roku zorganizowali też w Berlinie Międzynarodową Wystawę Artystów Rewolucyjnych. W 1922 r. współtworzyli grupę Die Kommune, a w 1923 Gruppe progressiver Künstler, z którą wystawiali w różnych miastych Niemiec oraz w Chicago. Kubiccy tworzyli głównie w międzynarodowym środowisku artystycznym Berlina, współpracując choćby z dadaistami Johannesem Baaderem i Raoulem Hausmanem. Do kręgu ich znajomych należeli także aktorzy teatru Erwina Piscatora, Georg Grosz,Marc Chagall, Kazimierz Malewicz czy wybitny fotograf, August Sander. Ich pracownia była miejscem spotkań ekspresjonistów z poznańskiej grupy Bunt i łódzkiej Jung Idysz. Przejściowo mieszali i tworzyli tam Jankiel Adler, Pola Lindenfeldówna i Artur Nacht-Samborski. Po dojściu Hitlera do władzy Kubicki przyjechał do Polski i działał jako kurier polskiego ruchu oporu.Został zamęczony na Pawiaku w 1942 r. Kubicka,przeżyła wojnę, ratując wiele prac męża i wspólnych przyjaciół. Pozostała czynna artystycznie do swej śmierci w 1984 r
Tylko  w  ostatnich  latach  prace  Kubickich  i  ich przyjaciół  pokazywano  m.in.  w  Los  Angeles,  Po-znaniu,  Wrocławiu,  Brukseli  czy  Tulonie,  a  całkiem niedawno  na  ekspozycji  My,  berlińczycy.  Historia polsko-niemieckiego  sąsiedztwa.  Ich  retrospektywna wystawa  przygotowywana  jest  obecnie  w  Muzeum Narodowym w Warszawie.Syn  Margarete  i  Stanisława  Kubickich,  prof.  S.  Karol  Kubicki,  był  współzałożycielem  i  pierwszymimmatrykulowanym  studentem  Wolnego  Uniwersytetu w Berlinie.

This book accompanied a retrospective exhibitions of the Department of Graphics at The University of Zielona Gora, which was part of a programm of the International Graphic Triennal in Cracow in 2015.
My input was to give an interpretation of the works of the 18 artists connected with the Graphics Department, the University of Zielona Góra within the years 2006–2015. I provided the essay titled Graficzne retro spectio – obecność, znakowość, proces. The co-author edited the introductory chapter and selected the pieces of art to include in this publication as well as to display at the Międzynarodowe Triennale Grafiki in Krakowie.

Malarz i grafik Otto Mueller (1874–1930) zyskał międzynarodowy rozgłos jako przedstawiciel grupy Brücke. Mniej znanym faktem jest, iż przez ponad dziesięć lat jako wykładowca na Państwowej Akademii Sztuki i Rzemiosła Artystycznego we Wrocławiu wywierał istotny wpływ na szeroki krąg twórców sztuki i kultury. Do bliskich współpracowników i przyjaciół Ottona Muellera należeli artyści, architekci, krytycy sztuki, pisarze, kolekcjonerzy i studenci.W 1919 r. Otto Mueller wyjechał z Berlina do Wrocławia. Liberalna atmosfera i otwartość władz tamtejszej Akademii na nowe trendy w sztuce sprawiły, że uczelnia ta stała się ważnym centrum propagującym modernizm.W połowie lat dwudziestych w jej ofercie dydak¬tycznej uwzględniano na równych prawach ekspre¬sjonizm, typowy dla dzieł Ottona Muellera, tendencje charakterystyczne dla Academie Matisse i malar¬stwa Oskara Molla, Nową Rzeczowość, reprezentowaną przez prace Alexandra Kanoldta i Carla Mensego oraz styl Bauhausu, znamionujący twórczość Oskara Schlemmera, Georga Muchego czy Johannesa Molzahna.Impulsem stymulującym rozwój Akademii była bliskość środowisk artystycznych i intelektualnych Wrocławia i Berlina. Znaczący wpływ na życie kulturalne uczelni wywierał jednak przede wszystkim charyzmatyczny profesor malarstwa – Otto Mueller. Niniejsza publikacja i towarzysząca jej wystawa są rezultatem polsko¬niemieckiego projektu. Ukazują one Ottona Muellera z różnych perspektyw – w potrójnej roli malarza, mentora i maga.
