oil, canvas, 62 x 39 cm, signed l.d.: 'RAJMUND ZIEMSKI 84.' and on the reverse: 'RAJMUND ZIEMSKI | LANDSCAPE 14/84 | 62 X 39'.
Between 1949 and 1955, he studied at the Warsaw Academy under A. Nacht - Samborski. He debuted in 1955 at the Arsenal gallery. Since 1958, he led the painting studio at his alma mater. The artist is one of the most prominent representatives of non-geometric abstraction in Polish postwar painting. His paintings, resembling biological forms, are characterized by richness of texture and color. For several decades, he titled almost all his works Landscape, changing only the dates and numbers. Beginning in the late 1950s, he practiced informel-type painting, which was characterized by an almost alchemical formula of the painterly surface, only to gain colorful explicitness over time. Far Eastern calligraphy remained one of the artist's most important inspirations in his later period. The painterly gesture became more important to him than complex chemical processes. Ziemski had many solo exhibitions at home and abroad. He also participated in numerous group exhibitions. In 1979 he was awarded the Jan Cybis Prize. His works can be found, among others, in the collections of national museums in Warsaw, Cracow, Poznan, Wroclaw and Gdansk, in the Museum of Art in Lodz and in many other public and private collections at home and abroad.
