Finally, the issue features seven reviews of books on Ewa Partum’s artistic practice, Czech art history writing, German artistic heritage in Estonia, Red Army monuments in Poland, networks of modernity in central Europe, the east European Neo-avantgarde, and an exhibition of French books in Budapest in 1957.
