The Princess Fainted on the Spot: On Ester Krumbachová’s Dark Tales.
Original language description
Recent research into the legacy of Ester Krumbachová1, initiated by the discovery of documents, artworks, writings, photographs, clothes, and other belongings comprising her estate, creates new perspectives on the life, film industry and culture of the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s in communist Czechoslovakia, the arrival of capitalism, and the swift neoliberal turn. However, it also presents difficulties with political and gender norms, and most significantly Krumbachová’s affiliation with future generations and the topics of our contemporaneity, such as feminism and gender fluidity, sex, food and cooking, care, welfare, plant and animal intelligence, interspecies communication, animism, holism, magic materialism, and object agency. Ester Krumbachová was a key figure in the Czech New Wave during the 1960s. She was a significant contributor to films such as The Party and the Guests, Daisies, Valerie and Her Week of Wonders, Witchhammer, and The Murder of Mr Devil as costume and stage designer, screenwriter, author, and director. After the Prague Spring of 1968 and the subsequent invasion of Czechoslovakia by the forces of the Warsaw Pact, Krumbachová was one of many Czech artists effectively silenced and banned from Barrandov Film Studios (with a few exceptions) until 1989.
