Dawid Radziszewski Gallery is excited to announce an upcoming solo presentation of new works by Tomasz Kowalski during this year’s edition of miart.
„A pioneer of the revival of Surrealism in Polish painting, Tomasz Kowalski explores the theater of the everyday, excavating the faint traces of the eerie that so often lurk beneath the seemingly mundane. Painting atop a variety of textiles, including linen, canvas, and jute, the artist places his protagonists in vast yet restrictive scenes. Figures peek out from behind curtains, newspapers, doors, and windows; their faces reflected, refracted, and multiplied. For Kowalski, a painting is primarily a vehicle to travel simultaneously outside and within oneself. And indeed, after an initial admiration of his compositions, rather than wondering about the narrative details of the curious scenes, viewers begin to reflect on who they are themselves.” Ewa Borysiewicz for Art Basel Stories
