"This book is the first to deal with documentary aesthetic practices of the post-war period in Eastern Europe in a comparative perspective. The contributions examine the specific forms and modes of documentary representations and the role they played in the formation of new aesthetic trends during the cultural-political transition of the long 1960s. This documentary first-hand approach to the world aimed to break up unquestioned ideological structures and expose tabooed truths in order to engender much-needed social changes. New ways of depicting daily life, writing testimony or subjective reportage emerged that still shape cultural debates today."--
This book, for the first time, investigates documentary aesthetics as a formative trend in post-war Eastern Europe. Its contributions reconstruct major artistic practices and their theoretical reflections within the broader cultural-political horizon of the turbulent 1960s
