Stanislaw Motyka

I was born on the 10th of May, 1967 in Przeworsk. My passion for art was ignited by an art teacher in my elementary school in Siennów – Marian Posiak.
I graduated National Art High School in Jarosław and Sculpture at National Fine Arts Academy in Kraków.
Iwas a student of professors: Marian Konieczny, Stefan Borzęcki, Józef Sękowski, Czesław Dźwigaj, Bogusz Salwiński.

I defended my diploma work: a set of sculptures named “Kapliczki” in 1994 and received the top grade. The artworks were exhibited in Kraków Palace of Art.
“Art coming from the most common reality exists and it may be worth the most” - it is the motto of my diploma work in which I brought the most common objects
(e.g. bottles, kites, potatoes, bread) to the rank of artworks.

In years 1989 – 1991 I was an apprentice in the workshop of a Russian artist living in the USA – Michail Chemiakin. In the year 2010 I completed a course for culture managers organized by the National Culture Center and Association Marcel Hicter pour la Democratie Culturelle.

In the year 1997 I have settled in Kamień Pomorski, where I work on sculptures and spatial installations. I have also worked on the reconstruction of architectural details.

I have partaken in such exhibition...
