'offers a great insight into sources of [Sasnal's] inspirations and fields of interest: painting about painting, figurative painting and portraits, the history of Poland and travel shots. ... The book itself is a journey full of facts and intriguing perspectives on materiality and subject matter of Sasnal's paintings and his way of deconstructing the different symptoms of current times. ... jam-packed with fascinating personal stories and facts from the artist's life. It also provides an insightful view of historical and contemporary perspectives on painting in pre- and post-Iron Curtain Poland.
