Artist
Paulina Ołowska
Born in Gdansk, 1976 and lives in Krakow, Poland
Painter, photographer and filmmaker. As an artist, she is known for projects that combine artistic means of expressions with elements of functional art.
Paulina Ołowska’s work involves murals, and performances that reference Pop art, graffiti, and Soviet propaganda. She frequently applies the procedures of the Western avant-garde, particularly of Dada and Pop art-to the popular iconography of pre-1989 Poland. In her work she creates startling mélanges of East and West.
