Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 24 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Europe is as divided as ever. The passengers of the low-budget airlines go east for stag parties, and they go West for work; but the East stays East, and West stays West. Caricatures abound - the Polish plumber in the tabloids, the New Cold War in the broadsheets and the endless search for 'the new Berlin' for hipsters. Against the stereotypes, Agata Pyzik peers behind the curtain to take a look at the secret histories of Eastern Europe (and its tortured relations with the 'West'). Neoliberalism and mass migration, post-punk and the Bowiephile obsession with the Eastern Bloc, Orientalism and 'self-colonization', the emancipatory potentials of Socialist Realism, the possibility of a non-Western idea of modernity and futurism, and the place of Eastern Europe in any current revival of 'the idea of communism' - all are much more complex and surprising than they appear. Poor But Sexy refuses both a dewy-eyed Ostalgia for the 'good old days' and the equally desperate desire to become a 'normal part of Europe', reclaiming instead the idea an Other Europe. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

First Edition. 39.5 x 32cm. Oblong hardcover in original titled cloth, 108pp. Text in dual Polish and English. Limited edition of 300 copies. Prefaced by an introductory essay by Zofia Czartoryska, Agata Pyzik's essay on "Polish queer culture, failure, and camp in Tomasz Machcinski's work", and Anke Kempkes' "The Unattainable", followed by Machcinski's extraordinary collage-portrait hybrid art, which is a personal art project created at home over several decades. From Agata Pyzik's text: "Machcinski is one of the most original, yet least-known Polish post-war visual artists. In the last 55 years - almost all his lifetime - he has been creating an incalculable body of photographic work, whose subject is solely himself. Himself as thousand different personages, some famous ones, from Hitler to Marlene Dietrich, to personalities of his own creation. All the while breaking all sexual, gender and cultural conventions and taboos. Submerged in his own creative frenzy, while living an ordinary small town life - he made his ALBUM - a photographic ready-made object, where he pasted his various impersonations and creations. Now a Foundation of his own name published The Album for the first time as a collector's edition of only 300 copies. This is a faithful replica of Machcinski's original book". Rare. Very good condition.
