Personal information

Sebastian Smit - He is a visual artist, who presented his works at several individual and collective exhibitions. He is an academic teacher at the Faculty of Arts at MCSU, he worked as a visiting professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Taiyuan, the Institute of Design in Beijing, and the Renmin University in Beijing. He is the originator, co-curator and co-organizer of the Lublin International Poster Biennale, and a curator of international exhibitions.

In art, he is interested in searching for an abstract form, created with point, sign and plane. He is inspired by old, destroyed items and transformation processes. His painting is full of "dirty" colour, his graphics are usually black — as if he wanted to get rid of beauty. He considers beauty a slavish imitation of what is generally regarded as perfect.
