Stanisław Szukalski Book order
Stanisław Szukalski was a Polish sculptor and painter who became a significant figure within the Chicago Renaissance. In 1930s Poland, he gained recognition as a nationalist sculptor. He also developed the pseudoscientific-historical theory of Zermatism, positing that all human culture originated from post-deluge Easter Island and that humanity was engaged in a perpetual struggle against the Sons of Yeti ("Yetinsyny"), the offspring of Yeti and humans.

Gdy opowiadanie Stanisława Szukalskiego 'Niemy Śpiewak' ukazało się w oryginale, w języku angielskim, zostało wysoko ocenione przez krytykę. Ze względu na wartości literackie i język utworu, autora przyrównano wówczas do Josepha Conrada. Natomiast Brytyjska Akademia Nauk zestawiła utwór Szukalskiego z prozą Guya de Maupassanta i Antoniego Czechowa. Pisze o tym w monografii poświęconej polskiemu artyście Lechosław Lameński.

An overview of the art of Stanislav Szukalski. Szukalski (1893-1987) was one of the great sculptors of the 20th Century. Due to geopolitical upheavals in his native land, Poland, a large proportion of his work was destroyed. Yet thanks to the efforts of a group of dedicated art patrons, art critics, and personal acquaintances, the work of Szukalski is being rediscovered. This is the first critical view of his work published since 1923, and contains writings, drawings, and photographs of his sculpture.
