Włodzimierz Pawlak’s “Diaries” series has been in the making since 1989, when the painter turned to white for good. He initiated a series of white paintings, as if he wanted to take a break from the reality around him, to distance himself. Over time, he began to add symbolic color elements specific to the events described by the painting, marked with dates. The diaries are a record of the artist’s reflections on life and art. It is one of the most important series created and continued by the Artist.
Włodzimierz Pawlak (born April 15, 1957 in Korytów near Żyrardów) is an acclaimed Polish painter, performer, poet and art theorist whose work has played a significant role in the Polish art scene since the 1980s. Pawlak graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, where he studied under Rajmund Ziemski and also began working as a lecturer in 1986. He was one of the co-founders of the avant-garde art group “Gruppa,” which in the 1980s took bold actions commenting on the socio-political situation in Poland during martial law.
