• Title:
  Józef Czapski: body – person – face
• Creator:
  Krakowiak, Małgorzata
• Description:
  This article is dedicated to analysis of Józef Czapski’s different carnality aspects in his works and personal documents (letters, diary memos). Czapski was a painter, painting theoretician as well essayist and diarist. In every discipline mentioned the most important factor was personal experience – contact with nature, feeling of world carnality. The article shows (basing on works referring to the period of war) how Czapski expressed his attitude to his and others suffering. From the letters and personal memos excavated fragments illustrating the process of growing old – hidden but affecting 50 years old Czapski (he died when 97) The last part is dedicated to Czapski’s blindness and the way he was able to save the dignity of the human who’s body is in the process of irreparable destruction (blindness, dementia).
