Biography
He was born in Babice.[1] He graduated from the Construction Technical School in Krzeszowice.[2] He studied at the Faculty of Architecture of the Kraków University of Technology, but interrupted his studies after the third year and moved to the Faculty of Graphic Arts of the Kraków Academy of Fine Arts.[2] There, in 2001 he obtained a diploma in the poster studio of Piotr Kunce.[2]
He was active in the Ładnie group[3] from 1996. In 1998 he founded and edited (together with Rafał Bujnowski) the artzine Słynne Pismo we Wtorek.[2] His first exhibitions took place at the Galeria Otwarta (Open Gallery) ran by Rafał Bujnowski.[2] In 1999 he exhibited his cycle of paintings Obrazy o dobru, miłości i kulturze at the Klub Kulturalny (Cultural Club) in Kraków.[2][1]
According to Wacława Milewska, “the protagonists of his mocking images, often accompanied by verbal commentary, are stars of mass culture, politicians and representatives of youth subcultures.”[4]
