The artist is currently connected with the 7th auction house in Europe - Desa Unicum.
Małgorzata Bańkowska was born in 1976 in Milanówek. Since birth, she's been tied to Brwinów and Podkowa Leśna, living at the edge of both of these painterly towns. It's here, as a child, that she began her creative journey.
She was fortunate to come upon an amazing man in her life - a man that inspires her, but also brings her down to earth from time to time, which is often necessary with her dreamer-like approach to life and wandering imagination. In 2006 she moved to Warsaw permanently, where she lives and creates to this day. In the same year she got married and changed her surname from her maiden name Sekuła to her husband's - Bańkowska. The wedding and moving to a new home marked a new stage, the beginning of a creative boom, intensified even more by pregnancy and the birth of their son, Jacek, in 2008.
During this time Małgorzata's works are dominated by erotica, fetish art intertwined with militaristic motifs, biomechanics and medical failure. A huge collection of drawings "The Red Gallery" was created exactly at this stage in her life. Her works portrayed mostly women. Woman-machine, a woman without arms or legs is always very useful and ...
Self-taught artist, developing her practice from an early age through independent, continuous study in painting, drawing, and sculpture.
