I'm an artist based in Berlin. I will forever speak about the nonsense of borders and the Berlin art scene.
Through my art, I seek to send a message to future generations who will undoubtedly decode works like Kabul Jumping or 100,000 Brote oder eine Iris-T.
Here beside me stands Working Figure (2010) — a painting about man reduced to process, anonymity absorbed into system.
Ultimately, I believe that art has the power to stop any evil — with a little help from you.
– born in Toruń, Poland, in 1963, Jarosław Viki Mierzicki has lived in Germany since the mid-1980s when he flew away from a communist bloc. He is a silently screaming, and inexorable artist who, through his expressive style, reveals and exposes the crucial events of our time. A solitary figure on the stage of contemporary painting, he focuses on perceiving the suffering of the individual. What is personal becomes political here, and what is political becomes personal.
Mierzicki's paintings are created in direct dialogue with the events surrounding him. His attention is fixed on people, and the most important artistic challenge for him is the transformation of real situations into a creative, expressive painterly form.
His works occupy a pictorial spectrum akin to that of his artistic forebears: Jean Dubuffet, Chaim Soutine, and Willem de Kooning. Their legacy serves as his inspiration. His paintings embrace objectlessness, the wildness of paint, and the fragility of form.
I'll respond ASAP.
