Summary/Abstract: The aim of article is to analyse the main artistic strategies in Darek Foks’ writing and to compare his works with the tradition and products of mass culture. In his latest composition, written in 2015 and titled Dad’s tablet, the author, as many times earlier, casts a critical eye over significant categories of mass culture, especially performance, stageability and, artistic authenticity. In this way Foks tries to leave his own, distinctively individual mark, a rebellious gesture against the rules governing contemporary culture.
