Anna Bolcewicz

I was born on August 15th, 1944 in Vilnius in Lithuania and to be descended of 15 th noble with coats of-arms families. My parents lost the properties in Lithuania during Big Russian Revolution in 1917 and the Second War World. To be Polish they came to the communistic Poland, where in Stalin time, they were pressed to hide their noble identification. We survived difficulties and I graduated from artistic college and Academy of Fine Arts. Still I remember a good time and clever professors,especial,one who asked students in this way; What do you do?; and ;What for do you do it?; It was her natural reaction, when she observed student artwork. At that time academy was open to new ideas and I started to do conceptualism, which I continued for a long time.After that time I returned to realism and spent 10 years in Holland, where I exhibited more monumental work,and people liked it and bought it. From 2011 I have created an idea of ;Realistic Play; with fantasy,humor and relax in order to show reality of different way.
