Maciej Szczurek-Maksymiuk

Maciej Szczurek-Maksymiuk - born in 1982 in Kraków. He is a graduate of the Faculty of Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts. Jan Matejko in Krakow in the studio of Prof. Leszek Misiak. The dynamics and expression in his paintings contrast with the calm and tranquility, and the emptiness in them is just as important an element of the image as the filling. Flowers and plant elements, not presented for themselves (and especially for their beauty), are a frequent motif that appears in his works, but they are the carrier of the idea of the passing and the baroque "impermanence of things in this world".
