Duda Gracz, Woman , 1966 (Dziewczyna)
oil on canvas 46x90 cm
signed
Jerzy Duda-Gracz (1941 - 2004) was a Polish painter.
The work of Duda-Gracz gravitates towards caricature and sentimentalism. His paintings reflect the gray landscape of the industrial land. He portrayed his models without embellishment: grumpy, sloppy, and sometimes drunk, but also bold, courageous, and even heroic.
Typical of his work is the painting "Horsemen of the Apocalypse", or "Hack" (1977). The clash of the banality of the theme with the comic pathos of the image is typical of Duda-Rook's paintings.
Critics believe that his work was a protest against stupidity, greed, and everyday nonsense.
