Juliusz LEWANDOWSKI (pseud. MARTWY, b. 1977, Warsaw)
One of the few painters of erotic art in Poland. He made his debut as the author of illustrations to Lautréamont's 'Songs of Maldoror' and the works of Marquis de Sade. An important part of his paintings are autobiographical themes, which become a pretext for showing universal problems of human nature.
Currently, in his works, he also touches on social and moral issues: he paints about the Great French Revolution, the Spanish Civil War or the Weimar Republic, among others. In his characteristic way, he also comments on the current situation of Poland. In addition to multifaceted genre scenes, he paints intimate portraits with still lifes, which often provide an interpretive key to the anecdote contained in the painting. His main inspiration is the tradition of figurative painting of the 20th century. - Expressionism, New Objectivity, Cubism and Russian painting.
