THESE ARE THE FACTS (EXCERPTS)
WIESŁAW SZAMBORSKI


These are the facts in which the essence (nature) of things exists. Obviously in a very narrow, my own scope. [...]
In 1960, I joined the Faculty of Painting and Graphic Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. I studied painting in the studio of professor A. Łyżwański, and later -Professor M. Bylina. About the half way through the first year "I got it" and somehow I started painting. The kapists reigned supreme in the Academy. At the beginning I somehow did not know about it. From the old reading (of novels), I knew Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec, probably Cezanne and Goya, later Matisse. While I was still in primary school, not knowing the names, I learned about contemporary Polish posters, so ubiquitous then in street propaganda and in front of the cinema. Earlier Matejko this mixed all of this up for me. At Bylina's studio, I could paint. [...]
Works from the diploma year are currently in collections of museums and galleries. There was the "New Figuration" in the world and I was brought into it. Apparently, I missed something because I learned about Bacon and the whole row concerning New Figuration only later. I wanted to paint not only beautiful, aestheticizing paintings with "tastefully" combined colours. Value and expression were indispensable in this whole anxiety, although I also searched for some positive elements. [...]
In the 1980s, I painted series of "beaches" and landscapes (mainly mountains), but not only them. There were anxiety and confusion in them, but also unity, although, frequently without a unity of form. I painted flowers and the seasons of the year, in which there is often something screaming; and a marine landscape, in which there are light, space, and something more.
In 1990, I became a professor. Since 1991, I have run a painting studio for students in their higher years of studies. [...]
I paint, I want to continue painting, and probably I will paint.
