Works and Words
This publication is an unedited reprint of the catalog originally published by De Appel in 1980 as a follow-up to the international art manifestation Works and Words.
The event sought to break with the one-way traffic of Western artists traveling to the East by inviting artists from Eastern Bloc countries to Amsterdam. The invited artists, theoreticians, film-makers, and art historians represented a broad spectrum of practices, theoretical approaches, and developments. The project resulted in an active exchange of ideas, new insights, and collaborations.
Participating artists included Franklin Aalders, Jaroslav Andel , Gabor Attalai, Zoran Belic, Jerzy Beres, Gabor Body, Branko Bubenik, Michel Cardena, Nusa and Sreco Dragan, Lubomir Durcek, Miklos Erdely, Ivan Ladislav Galeta, Tomislav Gotovac, Frank Gribling, Buky Grinberg, Vladimir Gudac, Tibor Hajas, Zlatko Hajdler, Janusz Haka, Karoly Halasz, Agnes Hay, Vladimir Havrilla, Nan Hoover, Sanja Ivecovic, Servie Janssen, Zoltan Jeney, Gyorgy Jovanovic, Cezary Jaworski, Jacek Jozwiak, Szigmond Károlyi, Karoly Kelemen, Michal Kern, Milan Knízák, Tomislav Kobija, Julius Koller, Mirko Komosar, Tomasz Konart, Jiri Kovanda, Harrie de Kroon, Zofia Kulik, Pawel Kwiek, Romuald Kutera, Przemyslaw Kwiek, KWIEKULIK, Natalia LL, Andrzej Lachowicz, Dusan Makavejev, Ivan Martinac, Dalibor Martinis, Raùl Marroquin, Dora Maurer, Antoni Mikolajczyk, Karel Miler, Jan Mlcoch, Teresa Murak, Vjekoslav Nakic, Mihovil Pansini, Aldo Paquola, Andrzej Paruzel, Sef Peeters, Vladimir Petek, Sandor Pinczehelyi, Reindeer Werk (Dirk Larsen & Tom Puckey), Jaroslav Richtr, Józef Robakowski, Vinco Rozman, Tomasz Sikorski, Petr Stembera, Mladen Stilinovic, Peter Timar, Teresa Tyszkiewicz and Zdzislaw Sosnowski, Goran Svob, Janusz Szczerek, Istvan Sziranyi, Rasa Todosijevic, Endre Tot, Janos Toth, Sava Trifkovic, Ulay, Jiri Valoch, Ante Verzotti, Janos Veto, Zbigniew Warpechowski, Ryszard Wasko, Albert van der Weide, and Dobroslav Zbornik.
