ABOUT

Józef Wierzbicki

I have always painted. And when I'm not painting, I move through the world seeing images that have yet to be made.


My commitment to painting as a way of life took on its formal shape at Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, where — under the mentorship of Professor Stanisław Borysowski — I completed my degree at the Faculty of Fine Arts.


I work primarily in easel painting and drawing, alongside reportage and creative photography. I am equally at home in graphic design, editorial illustration, and interior architecture.


My work has been shown at exhibitions, workshops, and open-air painting events across Europe.


It is held in both public and private collections worldwide — and there is no greater satisfaction for me than knowing that what I make carries meaning for others.


I hope your visit here brings you something of that same pleasure.
