Czeslaw Tumielewicz studied at the Faculty of Architecture at the Gdansk University of Technology, graduating in 1968. At the same time he studied painting at the Gdansk University under Prof. Adam Gerzabek and Wladyslaw Lam. He completed his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts (now the Academy of Fine Arts) in Poznań in 1978, receiving a diploma in Prof. Lucjan Mianowski's studio. He has been a member of ZPAP since 1970. He runs a studio of printmaking at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk. In 1994, he received the title of professor. He does painting, printmaking and book graphics, designs posters, and is also the author of a monumental set of stained glass windows in St. Eugene's Church in Kedzierzyn-Kozle (made in 1987-1990). Since 1965, he has had dozens of solo exhibitions and participated in many group exhibitions, such as: Festivals of Polish Contemporary Painting in Szczecin (1972, 1974, 1978), the "Golden Grape" Symposia in Zielona Gora (1975, 1977), the Polish Poster Biennale, Katowice 1975 and the International Poster Biennale, Warsaw 1988, as well as the International Biennale of Graphics in Cracow (1984, 1997). His painting has gone through various phases, from geometric abstraction to magical surrealism. He creates both paintings operating with the illusion of space and compositions resembling patchwork through the accumulation of varied, colorful forms on a flat background. They are dominated by a spirit of the grotesque and humor.
