Lecture about Tadeusz Kantor by Michal Kobialka
with screening of Kantor shows
Kobialka is known as the first translator into English of Kantor’s writings, about whom he wrote a series of studies. The lecture to be delivered in Bucharest is an occasion to scrutinize the career path of the Polish artist in the company of a specialist, and view representative episodes from his shows, thanks to the screenings made possible by Dorota Krakowska and the Kantor Estate, with support from the Polish Institute in Bucharest.
A professor at the Department of Theater Arts & Dance of the University of Minnesota, frequent guest of prestigious theater departments all over the world, such as the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands, member of the American Society for Theater Research and contributor to many specialized magazines, Michal Kobialka has published over twenty books about theater. He is a specialist of medieval theater, as well as of contemporary European theater and postmodern theater and drama.
