description: Photo session in the studio at Siemaszki Street in Kraków, during which Jerzy Bereś launches the sculpture "Newspaper Puncher" (1968), the session involves Jerzy Bereś and three young women, including Maria Socha (Potocka). Bereś is placing a newspaper on the "Newspaper Puncher" (shot from behind). It is a participatory sculpture. It was purchased by the Milanese gallerist Arturo Schwarz in 1973. Schwarz planned to establish the Museum of the Avant-Garde of Eastern Europe, but the plan was not realized. After many years, he sold his collection at auction. Since then, the fate of the sculpture is unknown.
