Edward Dwurnik

Painting, drawing, graphics. The work of Nikifor had a very great influence on the shaping of his language of artistic expression. In the second half of the 1960s, he began working on his largest and oldest series, Hitchhiking. The pictures that make it up are contemporary townscapes from a bird’s eye view, with a characteristic drawing form. Aside from the „portraits” of towns, Dwurnik also makes images of provincial human types rooted in their everyday reality. Works with political messages appear in his art and refer to concrete historical events from the communist period.
