Krzysztof Stefanski, 'He died, as he lived, on wings ...'. Antoni Wiwulski (1877 - 1919). Artist of the Young Poland Era" - publication of the Polonica Institute

Krzysztof Stefanski's monographic book entitled. 'He died as he lived, on wings... Antonii Wiwulski (1877-1919). Artist of Young Poland' is the story of an indefatigable artist, but also a man struggling with life, illness, love and personal and artistic professions. Krzysztof Stefanski's monographic book entitled. 'He died as he lived, on wings... Antonii Wiwulski (1877-1919). Artist of Young Poland' is a story about an indefatigable artist, but also a man struggling with life, illness, love and personal and artistic professions.

In the course of the reading, the author transports readers to Russian Totma, where Wiwulski was born, Vienna, where he was educated, beloved and modern Paris and sentimental Vilnius. Amidst the clamour of the streets of these and other places, the sculptor's personal and creative life unfolds - his peculiar relationship with his mother, his romantic relationship with Helena and his friend Maria Mickiewiczówna, the influential but also experiencing a creative crisis Ignacy Jan Paderewski. Krzysztof Stefański's text sparkles with anecdotes, stories, and fragments of personal correspondence with loved ones. The narrative constructed in this way reveals the almost intimate world of the artist, who - like everyone else - experiences successes, but also professional failures, cares for his fragile health, misses his loved ones, reflects on himself, and tries to fathom the mystery of love. Wiwulski's world is also a time of significant historical events and heated discussions about the past. Readers will find themselves at the centre of the dispute over the construction of the Grunwald Monument in Krakow and will learn about the artist's dilemmas related to the design of the Three Crosses in Vilnius.

We invite you to read this extraordinary book about an extraordinary man and a steadfast believer in the power of art.
