This book is the result of a conference that was held at the Cracow Conference Centre at Tomaszowice Manor from 14 to 16 May 2017. Co-organised by the Institute of Art History at the Jagiellonian University and the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow, the conference was titled&nbsp;<em>DeMATERIALISATIONS in Art and Art-Historical Discourse in the Twentieth Century<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By setting apart or, in a way, putting aside the prefix \u2018de\u2019 and separating it from \u2018materialisation\u2019, we hoped to create a motive that would spur the authors to analyse various artistic phenomena \u2013 from the reduction of the material basis of works of art to a consideration of the concept of matter itself and the ways in which it can be expressed in the most \u2018appropriate\u2019 manner. The second part of the conference title referred to the problems faced by art history when it comes to expressing the extra-material contents of works of art and to developing an appropriate methodology for investigating works that elude formal analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(From the introduction)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"405\" height=\"496\" src=\"https:\/\/www.irsa.com.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Wroblewski_Emotional_Content-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.irsa.com.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Wroblewski_Emotional_Content-1.jpg 405w, https:\/\/www.irsa.com.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Wroblewski_Emotional_Content-1-245x300.jpg 245w, https:\/\/www.irsa.com.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Wroblewski_Emotional_Content-1-122x150.jpg 122w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 405px) 100vw, 405px\" \/><figcaption>Cover photo: Andrzej Wr\u00f3blewski,&nbsp;<em>The Emotional Content of the Revolution<\/em>, 1948, Pozna\u0144, National Museum.
