Paweł Drabarczyk vel Grabarczyk

Art historian, adjunct at the Institute of Cultural Studies, University of Wrocław. His research examines the functioning of such categories in art as the sublime, the unrepresentable, melancholy, the sacred, and the uncanny. He is also interested in the longue durée of the Romantic imagination, particularly the semantic shifts occurring within it in relation to the growing “Anthropocene consciousness” and changing attitudes toward the sacred. His research interests further include theories of imagination, alternative histories of art, and the spectral institutions brought into being by artists. Author of the book ‘Gorączka i popiół. Imaginaria nowej sztuki’ (‘Fever and Ashes: Imaginaries of New Art’, 2023).
