Teresa PAGOWSKA (1926-2007) Lot n° 38

Teresa PAGOWSKA (1926-2007) Pejzaz nadmorski III (Seascape III), 1959 Oil on canvas. Signed, titled and dated on the back. 73 x 92 cm Teresa Pagowska participated in the 1959 "Biennale des Jeunes" at the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris. Our painting is most probably one of the 4 or 5 that Pagowska brought to Paris for the Biennale, but which were not exhibited, as the selected artists were allowed to exhibit only two paintings (see: Biennale catalog). In 1961 Teresa Pagawska exhibited at the Galerie Lambert in Paris. In 1997, a major retrospective of her work was held at the Zacheta National Gallery of Contemporary Art in Warsaw, and in 2003 at the National Museum in Poznan (the artist's hometown).
