ARTCHAT | The Transformation - artistic beginnings. A retrospective

Let’s make a few steps into the past. We already talked about Marian Gołogórski’s artistic beginnings, and studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow. Doing that, we should also say a few words about his diploma work.

ARTCHAT | Lamb Award by Marian Gologorski on Summer Jazz Festival

Traditionally, as every year, one of the most important cultural event in Krakow is Summer Jazz Festival. During this festival, the most outstanding jazz musicians are honored with a  very prestigious prize, the Lamb Award. Marian Gołogórski is an author of the bronze statue that was inspired by prof. Jerzy Skarżyński’s drawings of lambs. What’s more, from the very beginning of the festival, the lamb’s drawing has been used as a logo. Since 2001, every single year the prize has been given to the selected astonishing artists like:

It's time for a small retrospective! We'd like to show you a couple of pictures we took during Life is a pink roller-coaster international art exhibition that took place in the gallery between June 5th and June 30th, 2010.
