Łukasz Dziedzic
(born 1977) is an audiovisual artist, musician, painter, designer, and art curator. He creates video films, installations, and musical projects. He has produced, curated, and organized several hundred exhibitions, performances, concerts, and other cultural events in Poland and abroad.
From 2004 to 2022, he co-managed the Szara Gallery, one of the more significant contemporary art galleries in Poland. Since 2023, he has been co-managing the artist-run space Oblatów 4 in Katowice. He is the founder and President of the Szara Gallery Foundation. Member of the Council of the Museum of the History of Katowice.
He works with the medium of painting, finding in this traditional technique the possibility to process irritating and uncomfortable topics. In his projects, he addresses issues of corporeality, sexuality, emotions, close relationships, personality-forming moments, but also attitudes towards the country, the world, and humanity. These themes serve as building blocks for creating a new universe. They merge in the form of a loose visual notebook, mixing details from life, scenes referring to the history of culture, art, images inspired by newspaper photos, family albums, iPhone pictures, collections from the Internet, or dreams.
His projects have been shown both domestically and internationally, including at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, MOS in Gorzów Wlkp., MWW Contemporary Museum Wrocław, BWA in Bielsko Biała, CSW Kronika, and Gallery Entrance in Prague.
