Exhibition of Works by Andrzej Jacyszyn

In Silver and in Color

The Contemporary Jewelry Gallery at the Praga Koneser Centre is showing an exhibition of works by Andrzej Jacyszyn. The artist uses a variety of techniques and materials. His jewelry is full of natural stones and Baltic amber.

Andrzej Jacyszyn makes no secret that he is inspired by Baltic amber. The designer seeks his own form of displaying this Polish jewelry material. Using black resin for this purpose is – as he claims – his own original idea. Minimalist form and a black-and-white palette are his second line of interest as a designer.

Independent Work and Direct Contact

Andrzej Jacyszyn is a visual artist, a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, where he studied in the poster studio of Prof. Henryk Tomaszewski, and a designer and maker of unique jewelry.

“The drive to work independently, combined with the desire to test my work in direct contact with the audience, led me to take up the design and making of unique art jewelry,” says Jacyszyn. The author has shown his work at exhibitions in Düsseldorf, Sydney and Vienna.

Not Only Jewelry

Alongside his purely utilitarian work he also practiced painting and drawing. He also did newspaper illustration, which he showed in group exhibitions. In 1996 I began work as a graphic designer at “Rzeczpospolita”; besides design work on the newspaper itself, he also published his drawings there. From 2007 to 2009 he was deputy art director at “Dziennik” of Axel Springer. In 2009 he returned to designing and making unique jewelry.
