Summary/Abstract: Dolls and mannequins were a significant inspiration for artists of the interwar period. This motif was also used by Taduesz Kantor, especially in his play “The Dead Class”. The influence of the pre-war tradition as well as Kantor’s work can be seen in a new project called The Retired Men.
