Fyzické básnictví — Fysipos – Váša Petr (2012)

History, fantasy, theory, and practice. Petr Váša is an extraordinary personality who has been contemplating and realizing his own artistic expression, which he calls physical poetry, for nearly twenty years. During this time, he has gained considerable fame. He combines literary texts with theatrical elements in an original way, creating a completely original artistic form. The book Fysipos is a foundational work of this movement. In it, Petr Váša summarizes his manifestos and theoretical essays, in which he seeks the meaning and functions of physical poetry within literature and theater based on philosophical and anthropological texts. Additionally, the book contains a practical dimension. Váša demonstrates specific actions and practices through numerous examples and provides guidance on how those interested in this form of art can develop their talent. Thus, the book represents the first comprehensive treatise on this original Czech artistic movement. Moreover, the texts are arranged chronologically and interspersed with Váša's diary entries and interviews, making the work an engaging story and a unique history of this genre.
