Andrzej Dłużniewski

Painting, drawing, photography, installation. A conceptual artist. He postulates a search for utility in art based on the assumption that the most important consideration is to provoke reflection on the work of art. Author of a series of paintings employing plays on words in Polish, English and German. The idea relies on the grammatical differences between the three languages; for instance, in Polish ‘head’ is a feminine noun, and in German – a masculine noun. He has carried out an analysis of the traditional media through performance, for example drawing a nude study on the body of a naked model.
