Antoni Kowalski

(…) Antoni Kowalski realizes his passion with great vocation. I am sure that painting is not only a kind of therapy for him, but also the life itself. Nowadays, you have to be highly motivated to withstand the pressure of so called “the latest art”, which brings aggression, banality and emptiness surrounded by the media publicity. In his paintings he creates a very personal and unique world, which we discover with surprise. We immerse in this world being fascinated with the beauty and the mysterious climate. While communing with his paintings we are taken into their reality, which is built with unreal objects. This restless world of mysterious forms creates strange aura shining through unearthly glow.Despite the absence of living beings we can feel the presence of life. We feel the breath of these stone forms, stream of water, rustling of drapery put in layers on spiry columns.
We discover amazing solutions referring to old masters, but living their very mysterious lives, all created by the artist. Kowalski’s art cannnot be fully specified in the rational sphere. We are accompanied by secret areas full of unreal space, light and astonishing forms in their unique existence. Communing with his art, we get deeper in the spiritual world, which is so important nowadays, especially for people sensitive to these profound and everlasting values.(…)
