A substantial collection of 42 works of concrete poetry, documentation of poetic performances, and artist books by the central figures in unofficial and experimental poetry in Communist Czechoslovakia - Jiří Valoch, Karel Miler, J.H. Kocman, and Václav Vokolek. A special highlight of the group is the collection of 30 works of concrete poetry, poetic performances, and artist books by Jiří Valoch (b. 1946), a key figure in unofficial and experimental Czech poetry and art of the 1960s-1980s. The present collection was assembled by the pioneer of concrete poetry in Poland, Stanisław Dróżdż, with most materials traceable to specific curatorial or publishing projects. The works of J.H. Kocman and Václav Vokolek in the collection likely go back to the exhibition of Czech and Slovak concrete poetry which Dróżdż organised in 1976. The substantial collection of materials by Jiří Valoch was likely used in his solo exhibition which Dróżdż organised in Wrocław in 1979. A solo exhibition of Václav Vokolek was held in Wrocław in the same year, with a brochure for the solo show also included in this collection. Many of the works in this collection are signed and dated by the artists, with some including a dedication to Dróżdż. I.
