The aim of the article is to analyze and attempt to classify two juvenile texts by Julian Kornhauser which refer to painting works – Martwa natura z kompotierką (Bernard Buffet) and Guernica (Pablo Picasso). By delving into the works of the author of Origami, it is worth devoting a moment of attention to the images, as painting remains an extremely important source of reference for this work. However, the selected examples for analysis do not fit within the definitional framework of ekphrasis or hypotyposis. Importantly, the analysis of the selected texts also leads to the discovery of poetic connections between Kornhauser and surrealism, mainly in the Bretonian edition, thus allowing for the identification of interpretative sign posts that prove to be extremely helpful while reading subsequent, especially those published in the 1970s, poems and novels by the author of Zjadacze kartofli. The interpretation of juvenile poems therefore justifies the search in this work not only for experiments that elude methodological delimitations but also serves as evidence of correlations between Kornhauser’s poetry and avant-garde poetics.
