Thanks to his fabulous indomitable style and his reserved but eventually tragic personality, Albin Planinc was a mythical name for chess players in the 1970's . But in modern times he has been widely forgotten, a situation that this little tribute intends to address. By revisiting 30 of his most indelible battles, the emphasis of the commentaries is on Planinc's unequaled search for beauty, a much needed perspective in our times of dry pragmatism.
