Stach Szumski
Biography
Born in Gdańsk in 1992, the artist has for many years pursued a multidisciplinary practice encompassing painting, installation, sculpture, graphics, and public interventions. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, although his artistic thinking has been shaped just as significantly by the years he spent exploring abandoned buildings in Lower Silesia and carrying out artistic interventions within them. His work has been presented at numerous institutions in Poland and internationally, including the Zachęta National Gallery of Art in Warsaw, the Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art, the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, the National Museum in Wrocław, the Kyoto Art Center, the Ljubljana Biennale of Graphic Arts, the Foksal Gallery, and most recently at Galeria EL in Elbląg.
