About The Artist
Pawel Kuczynski’s art is extremely evocative. His art always
confronts the viewer with specific current problems know from the
media but presented in altogether different form.
Kuczynski as an artist is deeply involved and uncompromising in
his political judgements and social diagnosis. He explots the
aesthetics of surrealism, makes skilful use of visual metaphors and
black humour is definitely his element. Technical mastery and the
nearly photographic realism of his scenes enhance the effect of
astonishment in the viewer who faces the artistic world for the first
time.
In Kuczynski’s works, the sad truth about human condition, about
social, political and environmental threats takes definite shape and
is no longer abstract. However, the grotesque perspective allows
him to tame fear and make unpleasant facts bearable. The aim is
clear - to learn to see seemingly obvious things in a satirical
fashion, that is ‘À rebours’.
Among Kuczynski’s works, there are also purely humorous
drawings and others based on playing with form, subtle, even
poetic in their expression. These act as interesting interludes in his
art.
