Biography
He studied at the Warsaw University of Technology and the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. In 1965, he created the first paintings from the series “Attempts at a Visual Presentation of Statistical Distributions,” in which he used black and white squares as the basic structural units, and their arrangement was determined by chance. In 1966, he received an award at the Symposium of Artists and Scientists in Puławy. From 1967 to 1977, he created stage designs for, among others, the Polish Theater in Warsaw. In 1976, he began his work at the “Game Salons,” into which he invited random participants. After 1980, he created spatial forms—so-called “geometry in a state of tension.” His major spatial projects include: “Goriucken” (1976), a project for Hamburg from 1980, and participation in “Kunststrasse Rhon” in 1986. He had approximately 50 solo exhibitions; his major group exhibitions include: the São Paulo Biennial (1969), and the Constructivist Biennale in Nuremberg (1969 and 1971).
