THE ART OF SILENCE

POLISH TITLE: SZTUKA MILCZENIA

For Jerzy Mierzejewski, painting is the art of silence. It enables man to reach the invisible through what can be seen. Born in 1917, the artist has spent 70 years creating metaphysical pictures, always off the mainstream of contemporary art trends. For many years he also worked as a lecturer and dean of Łódź Film School. He has become a real authority for many generations of postwar cinematographers and film directors in Poland.
