Summary/Abstract: The article presents a preliminary analysis of selected archival materials by Tymoteusz Karpowicz and Krystyna Miłobędzka – representatives of Polish postwar avant-garde. The study is a part of a multiperspective research on these two partly related poetic oeuvres, which are akin in their search for experimentation and new forms of expression, although diverging in their concepts and stylistics. Further research on the creative processes aimed at exposing the material, dynamic and intentionally open-ended nature of their texts can shed a new light on the history of Polish postwar avant-garde. The archives of Karpowicz and Miłobędzka remain ‘works in progress,’ which is significant in the context of their creative programs and poetic practices.
