Item Details
Description
Oil on board abstract composition painting, framed. Signed and attributed to Jerzy Nowosielski (Polish, 1923-2011) on lower left corner. 58.4 x 43.2 cm (23 x 17 inches. Nowosielski's works have been presented not only in numerous solo exhibitions and - regularly - in presentations of the Kraków Group, but also in historical group exhibitions, such as Metaphors (Warsaw 1962; conception by Ryszard Stanislawski), the Festivals of Contemporary Polish Painting (Szczecin, from 1962), the "Comparisons" Fine Arts Festivals (Sopot, from 1965), Voir et concevoir (Sukiennice, Kraków, 1975, conception by Mieczyslaw Porebski; Nowosielski painted then one of his most outstanding pieces - the panoramic composition Villa dei Misteri, alluding to the "monographic" images of girls from 1968), Romanticism and the Romantic in 19th- and 20th-Century Polish Art (Warsaw 1975, Katowice 1976, conception by Marek Rostworowski and Jacek Waltos); it is also worth adding here the shows organised in the 1980s as part of the independent culture movement and their recapitulations (Touch. The Iconography of the 1980s in the Work of Kraków Artists; Epitaph and Seven Spaces, both 1991), and finally the exhibitions Jerzy Nowosielski, Mikolaj Smoczynski, Leon Tarasewicz (Warsaw 1997) and In Search for Authenticity (Lublin 2002). Nowosielski represented Poland at the biennales in Venice (1956) and Sao Paulo (1959). In 1960, his piece The Cello Player was nominated for the Solomon Guggenheim Prize in New York (the prize ultimately went to Eugeniusz Eibisch). He is a laureate of the Minister of Culture and Art's 2nd (1962) and 1st (1973, 1981, 1997) prizes, as well as the Wladyslaw Pietrzak Prize (1967). He also received the Silver Laurel of the Polish Olympic Committee for the Swimmers series (1973), the Gold Cross of Merit (1976), the Brother Albert Award (1977), the Alfred Jurzykowski Foundation Award (1981), the Commander's Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta (1981), the 1st degree State Award (1984), the Jan Cybis Award (1988), the Anna Kamienska Medal (1992), the Culture Foundation's Great Prize (1994), the Grand Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta (1998), the Witold Wojtkiewicz Award (1999; awarded by the Kraków Branch of the Polish Fine Artists Association), the "Cracoviae Merenti" Silver Medal (1999), and the highest decoration awarded by the Orthodox Church in Poland - the 2nd degree St. Mary Magdalene Medal (1985).
