Objectives: Wood dust is a known occupational allergen that may induce, in exposed workers, respiratory diseases including asthma and allergic rhinitis. Samba (obeche, Triplochiton scleroxylon) is a tropical tree, which grows in West Africa, therefore, Polish workers are rarely exposed to it. This paper describes a case of occupational asthma caused by samba wood dust. Material and Methods: The patient with suspicion of occupational asthma due to wood dust was examined at the Department of Occupational Diseases and Clinical Toxicology in the Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine. Clinical evaluation included: analysis of occupational history, skin prick tests (SPT) to common and occupational allergens, determination of serum specific IgE to occupational allergens, serial spirometry measurements, metacholine challenge test and specific inhalation challenge test with samba dust. Results: SPT and specific serum IgE assessment revealed sensitization to common and occupational allergens including samba. Spirometry measurements showed mild obstruction. Metacholine challenge test revealed a high level of bronchial hyperactivity. Specific inhalation challenge test was positive and cellular changes in nasal lavage and induced sputum confirmed allergic reaction to samba. Conclusions: IgE mediated allergy to samba wood dust was confirmed. This case report presents the first documented occupational asthma and rhinitis due to samba wood dust in wooden airplanes model maker in Poland.

In the text, the author refers to the work of the artist Hélio Oiticica and Brazilian Neo-Concretism in order to show, through an analysis of a series of works Parangolés, the revolutionary change that has occurred in the approach to the artwork since the 1960s. It is a journey from the artwork as an object to an ephemeral event with its implications, such as the noticing the artwork in experience, redefinition of the role of the viewer, the opening to everyday life and social (as well as political) reality. In her analysis, the author focuses on the series Parangolés, created between 1964-68, to show how dance became for Oiticica a medium of transformation of art as well as of the social life. Parangolés look like colourful sheets or long scarves. They are made without considering the size of a particular body. By wrapping oneself in them, one has to adapt them to one's figure and, by mastering the matter, create a composition in space. They are thus experienced as a kind of mobile sculpture that moves with or directly on the user.

Autorka analizuje twórczość artysty Hélio Oiticiki i neokonkretyzm brazylijski, aby na tym przykładzie zobrazować zmianę paradygmatu dzieła sztuki zachodzącą od lat sześćdziesiątych, interpretowaną jako droga od dzieła sztuki pojmowanego jako obiekt do efemerycznego wydarzenia. Zmiana ta implikuje osadzenie percepcji dzieła sztuki w doświadczeniu, redefinicję roli odbiorcy, otwarcie na życie codzienne i rzeczywistość społeczną i polityczną. Artykuł koncentruje się na powstałym w latach 1964–1968 cyklu Parangolés, aby ukazać, jak taniec stał się dla Oiticiki medium transformacji sztuki, a także życia społecznego. Parangolés wyglądają jak kolorowe płachty czy długie szarfy. Szyje się je bez uwzględnienia rozmiarów konkretnego ciała. Oplatając się nimi, trzeba dostosować je do swojej sylwetki i poprzez opanowanie materii stworzyć kompozycję w przestrzeni. Doświadcza się ich więc jako mobilnych rzeźb, które poruszają się razem z użytkownikiem czy bezpośrednio na nim.
