and presents unsettling graphic works by Karel Teige (Czechoslovakia), Roman Cieslewicz (Poland), and Andrzej Klimowski (UK) to name just a few.

The themes explored include the intriguing power of the image’s metamorphosis the lexicon of anatomical images and the fragmented human body the inexplicable juxtaposition of fortuitous objects the female figure as avatar of desire the use of psychic automatism to freely express the unconscious
