Hello,
My name is Wojtek. I have been creating paintings, black-and-white photographs, and sculptures made of steel, concrete, and wood since 1980 🎨.
I was born in Warsaw, Poland, in 1955 and I have lived in Cologne, Germany since 1978. I studied at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering at Warsaw University of Technology. From a young age, I was fascinated by art - a passion that evolved throughout my studies as I experimented with different materials, structures, and techniques.
Art has always been intertwined with my professional life, shaping my creative visions and projects. Initially, I focused on black-and-white photography, captivated by its ability to highlight form and structure. Over time, I expanded my artistic expression to include paintings and sculptures made out of steel, concrete and color pigments.
For me, art reflects life's mysteries and expectations, inviting the viewer to engage, question, and seek answers that often emerge through chance, preserving the essence of artistic mystery.
My journey is far from over — I continue to create new sculptures and paintings, actively participating in exhibitions and art fairs in Germany and Poland.
In 2020, I published an album celebrating 40th anniversary of my artistic activity, showcasing a selection of my works.Â
"Wojtek is a master. He senses and sees the texture of the image – that is a rare talent! This idea, the concept of color as material, is brilliant. Nowadays, many people use photography as a base to create tangible, textured portraits and canvases. But he creates classics.
His color is matter and element. He draws it out of chaos, out of nothingness. That is magnificent. His culture is mysterious. His world of metal and his urban blurs are very fascinating. This is an industrial essence – very distinctive and meaningful.“
