CONTEMPORARY ART REVIEW
crucial point for me was visit to Vatican Pinakoteka , where I saw Leonardo Da Vinci painting half-done , at the stage of painting ground ( underlayer ) and suddenly I understood everything !
However it also happened during my studies , that I was even pursued to create conceptual art , abstraction – as something “ new “. Nevertheless I continued classical painting , feeling that this is my only way . That is why I can say that Academy neither had any vital influence in creating my style nor created the way I currently conceive and produce my works . I am Polish , raised in European art heritage and I respect very much tradition and beauty . I appreciate and exploit the experiences from the past ages of art history , fortifying them with my own feelings and visions . My desire is to remind the audience we carry , as human beings – emotions , memory and dream .
