Scope and Contents

Subitiled "L'art vivant autour du musee de Lodz," the exhibition and catalogue was more than a panorama or a retrospective of the intellectual, artistique and spiritual center of art in Poland. It was a multi-discipline manifestation of a utopian community which started in the 1930's and gave a voice to the cultural and artistic collaboration between Poland and France. The Sackners attended this exhibition held at the Pompidou Centre. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
