Teodor ZIOMEK
1874 Skierniewice - 1937 Warsaw
Initially he studied drawing at the Warsaw Drawing School under Wojciech Gerson. Then he continued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow, under the guidance of Leon Wyczółkowski and Jan Stanisławski, where he studied from 1897 to 1901. After his studies, in 1905 he settled permanently in Warsaw, from where he traveled around the country and abroad. Beginning in 1897, he exhibited extensively, often winning prestigious prizes and awards. He belonged to several prominent art associations, including the Association of Polish Artists Art, as well as the Warsaw Association of Artists Splinter or the Circle of Polish Mariners. He also belonged to the Warsaw art group Pro Arte. In addition, he collaborated with the editors of the monthly literary and art magazine Sphinx. He was primarily a painter of the Polish landscape, creating atmospheric landscapes of Mazovia. In the interwar period, his delicately misty landscapes, painted under the influence of Jan Stanislawski, were highly regarded and enjoyed great success. Light played an important role in Teodor Ziomek's paintings. The moodiness of his soulful landscapes was in line with the aphorism that landscape should express the state of the soul.
