Wojciech Piekarski

Wojciech Piekarski (born 1980) graduated from the Lodz University of Technology in 2007. He lives near Pabianice, close to Łódź.

He is a painter who creates large commissioned sacred scenes and portraits. He also paints realistic landscapes, elegant still lifes, and nudes set in minimalist, studio-like settings reminiscent of photographic studios. Moreover, his works from the latter two categories, with their photographic precision, verge on hyperrealism.

In his artistic practice, he draws inspiration from the Old Masters, particularly the painting of Caravaggio. Since 2007, he has participated in a program promoting the work of Łódź artists, introduced by the Rynek Sztuki auction house in 2006. His art is highly regarded among admirers of realistic painting, and the prices of his works are rising dynamically.
