Piotr Jakubczak

Piotr Jakubczak, who will be celebrating the 25th anniversary of his creative work this year, was born in Hrubieszów. His adventure with painting began in Zamość, which resulted in his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, where he studied in the studios of prof. Leszek Misiak and prof. Zbigniew Kuntz. In the 90s, he was the director of BWA - City Gallery in Tarnów. Before the year 2000, Piotr emigrated to France and spent the next 10 years there, creating at the same time and actively taking part in various artistic events, including many exhibitions (Nice, Montpellier, Narbonne). By participating in the international painting salon of CLUB ARTISTIC C.I.B. in Nice, he won the "Best of the Best" award. He took part in several dozen individual and collective exhibitions in Poland and abroad. Currently, Piotr Jakubczak lives and works in Poland. His works are in private collections in Poland and abroad, incl. in the Vatican, Japan and the USA. “In Piotr Jakubczak's paintings all the elements clash. On the one hand, ecstatic delight, complemented by joy and energy, based on dynamism that stands out to the fore, and on the other hand, melancholy, a deep experience of the world's elusiveness, smoothly turning into a tragedy based on the awareness of the fragility of all matter.
