Krystian Lupa – trudne mistrzostwo
Krystian Lupa – a difficult mastery

Summary/Abstract: Beata Guczalska's article is a survey of Krystian Lupa's work looking for changes and similarities which can be found in his performances. The author presents the function of improvisation and the role of forming experimental communities in order to create performances. Focusing in large part on the stagings of Thomas Bernhard's novels, she proves that the director has used the Austrian writer's work „for years to achieve various aims, depending on the area of his artistic needs”. Guczalska daringly compares Lupa's importance to that od Kantor and Grotowski.
