Late Jan Berdyszak

Jan Berdyszak (15 June 1934 –18 September 2014) was a Polish artist.[1] From 1952 to 1958, he studied at the Sculpture Department of the State College of Fine Arts in Poznań (now Fine Arts Academy), where he eventually returned as a lecturer.[1] He participated in numerous exhibitions both in Poland and abroad. His works were exhibited in the Foto-Medium-Art Gallery in 1980, 1986, 1995 and 2007. [citation needed]

In honor of his merits for culture he was appointed a

Projects

Berdyszak's artistic projects cover a wide range of fields and techniques, including graphic design, sculpture, installations, photography, and stage designs for theatre performances. His art is frequently analytical and academic, and he frequently deliberates on variations of a particular problem, sometimes bringing threads from past projects into subsequent ones[citation needed].

A number of Berdyszak's works concentrate on the issue of space, which he defined as "the original being, and also density, darkness, void, transparency and potentiality."[

space-time continuum and infinity
. His sculpture projects and stage designs frequently reflect on light, words, and movement.
