Andrzej Wroblewski
David Zwirner Gallery, London
ANDRZEJ WROBLEWSKI died at the tragically early age of 29 in 1957 but left an indelible body of work that was formally decades ahead of its time.
A committed communist, he engaged with the reality of post-WWII Poland in a manner that shocked the stifled art establishment and often confounded the authorities.
Like his compatriot the writer Tadeusz Borowski, renowned for This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen, Wroblewski exorcised the demons of nazi savagery with uncompromising commitment.
