This album is a unique, richly illustrated book published on the seventieth anniversary of the origins of the phenomenon called the Polish School of Poster. Zdzisław Schubert, the author of the book, presents the most famous figures in the Polish School of Poster and their most outstanding works in detail.

The album features the works of Edward Dwurnik (1943–2018), one of the most famous Polish painters. A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, presented with multiple awards and distinctions, laureate of, among others, the Solidarity Independent Culture Committee Award (1983) and the Contemporary Art Foundation Award (1992). 

The album is dedicated to the art of one of the most recognisable contemporary Polish artists – Jerzy Duda-Gracz. In his works, the artist often commented on the social and political reality, balancing between grotesque, irony, and satire on the one hand, and sentimentalism and nostalgia on the other. He is famous for painting series, of which the most recognisable are Motifs, Polish Portraits, and Jurassic Paintings.

A luxury album on the life and art of the Queen of Art Deco – Tamara de Lempicka. The artist owed her world-wide fame to her luminous portraits of well-known personalities. Since childhood, she was passionate about art, and she learned the tricks of the trade while visiting Europe’s key museums.

Part two of the album presenting nudes by Rafal Olbinski – one of the most recognisable contemporary surrealist artists, multiple-award winner, teacher in the School of Visual Arts in New York City. 

The album is dedicated to design, interiors, and fashion in the pre-war Poland, in the period from the famous International Exhibition in Paris in 1925 until 1939. It presents the most interesting furniture, decorative ceramics, tableware, cars, motorcycles, and even train engine designs.

The seventh mini-album in our Painting series features the works of the Polish artist Rafał Olbiński. He has gained international recognition for his surrealist posters and paintings, and the body of his work abounds in abstract and sensual metaphors.

Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz, aka Witkacy (1885–1939) – a painter, draughtsman, photographer, writer and philosopher. One of the most versatile and extraordinary artists in the history of Polish art. Perceived as an eccentric provocateur already during his lifetime, he disrupted every field of activity that he entered, creating new forms of communication and expression.

In fact, Zofia Stryjeńska became famous as a painter and illustrator, but she was also a skilled writer. This collection of rules of etiquette proves the versatility of the Princess of Polish Painting and her unusual sense of humour.

Eugène Delacroix is the epitome of romantic painting. He created paintings commenting on the key contemporary political and religious events and showing historical scenes, of which the most famous one is “Liberty Leading the People” with the personification of Marianne, one of the French national symbols.
