Welcome to the Grand BAZ’ART 2016!
The art of Eugeniusz Zegadlo is deeply rooted in folk tradition. A daring artistic vision is what best characterises his sculptures. They are perfect examples of contemporary naïve art based on legends and rituals. Speaking to the artist’s great force of imagination, they represent religious motives, biblical scenes, musical angels, devils dancing cheerfully, birds-of-paradise, everyday life scenes, ceremonies and folk celebrations. All these seem to have been magically turned into pieces of wood, so as to entertain or to make people slip into reverie.
Eugeniusz Zegadlo was born in 1943 in a family of artists. His father was a well-known folk sculptor, his brother graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts and his grandfather was a well-known artist, famous for his works on religious subjects, which can be seen in churches in the Swietokrzyskie Mountains.
