Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
A complete monograph devoted to the Polish master of abstract painting, whose compositions play with minimalist forms and colour
Stanis&&&322;aw Fija&&&322;kowski (1922-2020) boasts a direct connection to the very origins of the European avant-garde he was an assistant of Wladyslaw Strzeminski, who in turn had studied under Kazimir Malevich.
Throughout six decades Fija&&&322;kowski maintained a solely unique idiom of mystical painting, hovering between the abstract and the representational. He also explored the subject theoretically and translated into Polish several important texts, including Wassily Kandinskys On the Spiritual in Art.
Fija&&&322;kowski was also an accomplished engraver, with prints in the collections of Museum of Modern Art, New York and Tate Britain. Even when simplified to black and white his compositions still manage to convey an aura of meditative mystery. The artist had significant international presence in his lifetime he represented Poland at the S?o Paulo and Venice biennales, lectured in Belgium and Germany, served as Vice-President of the International Society of Wood Engravers XYLON in Winterthur, Switzerland.
This comprehensive monograph is a rare opportunity for the international audience to rediscover an artistic vision of such scope and magnitude. Longevity allows Fija&&&322;kowski to trump the logic of isms, as critic Mark Sadler pointed out in his Frieze review of a 2016 exhibition.
