The young artist is from Bolesławiec. She graduated from the Faculty of Painting and Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Wrocław.
The paintings presented at the exhibition are part of a diploma project submitted in June 2004 and displayed at the BWA Gallery in Wrocław.
The artist says that the landscape inspired her to grapple with the medium of painting during the difficult period of preparing for her diploma. It provided rest for the imagination and helped shape her sensitivity. She drew energy from it to formulate her own artistic expression.
The exhibition of works by Monika Kleszczewska-Oleksy can be visited until 20 May during the Library’s opening hours.
