Polish Artists | Sitemap

Polish art has often reflected European trends while maintaining its unique character.
The Kraków school of Historicist painting developed by Jan Matejko produced monumental portrayals of customs and significant events in Polish history.
He is referred to as the most famous Polish painter or even the "national painter" of Poland.
Stanisław Witkiewicz was an ardent supporter of Realism in Polish art, its main representative being Jozef Chełmoński.
The Młoda Polska (Young Poland) movement witnessed the birth of modern Polish art and engaged in a great deal of formal experimentation led by Jacek Malczewski (Symbolism), Stanisław Wyspiański, Józef Mehoffer, and a group of Polish Impressionists. Artists of the twentieth-century Avant-Garde represented various schools and trends.

Stanisław Witkiewicz (Polish painter, illustrator, art critic and theoretician, a writer, 1851-1915 )

Manet ed il Realismo


Già negli esordi l'arte di Manet apparve indubbiamente connotata da pressanti esigenze realiste, a tal punto che arrivò persino aa infuriarsi con il maestro Couture, troppo legato agli accademismi («insomma, vi comportate così quando andate a comprare un mazzo di ravanelli dalla vostra fruttivendola?»).

A turbarlo in particolar modo era in particolare la mancanza di naturalezza delle pose adottate dalle modelle:
«Vedo che ha dipinto una finanziera. E di eccellente fattura. Ma dove sono finiti i polmoni della modella? Sembra che sotto l’abito non respiri. Come se non avesse un corpo. È un ritratto da sarto».

Pablo Neruda / Lisa G. | Here I Love You / Qui ti amo

Qui ti amo.
Negli oscuri pini si districa il vento.
Brilla la luna sulle acque erranti.
Trascorrono giorni uguali che s'inseguono.

Here I love you.
In the dark pines the wind disentangles itself.
The moon glows like phosphorous on the vagrant waters.
Days, all one kind, go chasing each other.

La nebbia si scioglie in figure danzanti.
Un gabbiano d'argento si stacca dal tramonto.
A volte una vela. Alte, alte, stelle.
O la croce nera di una nave.
