Winner of the Grand Prix of the National Painting Competition "BIELSKA JESIEŃ" (1997). From most of Leder's paintings emanates peace and certainty of eternity. As if in spite of decadence or hastily created "miraculousness" of discoveries of the new world, the artist's paintings remind of the thousand-year experience of Aborigines and Tibetans, and other mystics penetrating the mysteries of the Universe for centuries.
