Art for Inspiration: from Poland with Love


There is so much incredible art that has been produced, but it sometimes seems the sheer amount prevents us from seeing and appreciating some really great artists! My name is Ellen, and I’m a student at Albright College here to show all of you some great artists for you to draw inspiration from. One of my favorite sculpture artists whose work I find breathtaking, is Igor Mitoraj. He was a Polish sculptor who primarily worked with marble and thematically had a classical style, but with a postmodern flare in the ways with which he altered the human form. He originally studied painting at the Krakow Academy of Art and the National School of Art, but became inspired to pursue sculpture while travelling in Mexico. Here’s some cool pictures of this amazing work for appreciation and inspiration!
Can you think of a neat project that draws inspiration from Mitoraj’s work? Let us know what you think the comments section below!
