From Poland with Love : Letters to Harald Szeemann (Hardcover)

Over a period of twelve months, between May 2017 and May 2018, Polish curator and critic Anda Rottenberg wrote a series of fictional letters to the legendary curator and writer Harald Szeemann (1933–2005). In them, she reflects on the art and nature of curation throughout art history. Questioning the position of female artists in both Eastern and Western Europe, Rottenberg encourages new individual readings of them. Her letters display a distinctive rhetoric that raises questions and challenges judgments to amalgamate individual opinion and objective knowledge into a personal history.
