The young painter's "nasty children" and "fantastic animals" invade the canvas with their morbid figures and jarring symbolism as she creates a new Gothic style that meshes surrealist imagery, medieval mystery, fairy tale themes and references to the likes of Hieronim Bosch and Francisco de Goya.
Over the past year Aleksandra Waliszewska (born 1976 in Warsaw) has etched out a place for herself among the brightest young talents of Poland's art scene and a promising export in the near future. A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and recipient of scholarships awarded by the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, she is among the few new artists brave enough to avoid the slick temptations of new media and performance, opting instead for one of the most traditional art forms: painting. Over the past decade, she has had more than 20 solo exhibitions in Poland and abroad, collaborating with the international art group Frederic on exhibitions in Paris and presenting her work in collections published by My Dance The Skull, United Dead Artists, Les Editions Du 57, Drippy Bone Books, Editions Kaugummi.
