Leszek Michalski

Leszek Michalski began his art education at the age of fifteen at the Society of Friends of Zachęta. In 1979, he began studies at the College of Industrial Design in Halle (Germany) at the Department of Toy Design. Since 1998, he has mainly dealt with sculpture in metal. He works in brass and bronze, creating collections of chamber sculptures. The artist shows his works in unusual places - clubs, basements, industrial spaces, open air. It is his way to build a certain relationship between his sculptures, the surrounding reality, and his audience. In 2002 he was awarded the diploma "The Creator of Polish Culture". He has participated in several individual exhibitions, and over 20 collective exhibitions throughout Europe, including in Italy, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Slovenia and Austria.
