Biography
He is one of the most interesting artists of the generation that emerged on the national art scene in the 1980s (during this period he did not participate in the official artistic circulation, he was active, among others, in the alternative circle of the Lodz Attic and the "Culture of the Whipround", he also cooperated with Zofia Kulik as her model), he creates objects, installations, video realizations, uses photography, painting, is the author of multimedia activities. The contemplative-meditative works he presented in the early 1990s - such as the video realization "Mystical Perseveration" (shown, among others, at the famous exhibition "Mystical Perseveration and Rose" in 1992 at PGS in Sopot) generated considerable interest around his work. Subsequent exhibitions in which he presented such realizations as "Corrective Devices" (solo exhibition at the Center for Contemporary Art in Warsaw), or a model of a concentration camp built from Lego blocks, earned him the name of a controversial artist and international fame. In 2004, he showed an exhibition of his works using photographic messages, "Masters and Positives," at the Atlas Sztuki in Lodz, PGS Sopot, and the Arsenal in Poznan.
