Biography
Maria Korsak, today is considered one of the key representatives of non-professional painting, also known as naive painting. The painter spent her childhood on the family farm in Vilnius region. From her early childhood she was involved in weaving, mainly creating kilims, which remains evident also in her later painting compositions. In the second half of the 1950s, she moves to Warsaw, deciding to repatriate. A visit to Moscow that year to complete the formalities and encountering the rich art collection of the Tretyakov Gallery inspired her to make her first painting attempts. At the age of 50, without professional training, Maria Korsak made her first works that were reproductions of famous works. Later she also engaged in decorating everyday objects, which contributes to the demand for her works and their presentation in such important institutions as the Museum of Modern Art. in Miami.The artist developed her characteristic style, in which the leading motifs came from the artist's childhood memories, as well as from the surrounding reality, which she observed with unusual sensitivity and insight.
