Wilhelm Sasnal Girls Smoking (Anka, Dominika, Peaches) 2001 Each: oil on canvas. Anka: 33 x 33 cm. (17 3/4 x 19 3/4 in); Dominika: 33 x 33 cm. (13 x 13 in); Peaches: 33 x 33 cm. (13 x 13 in). Each: Signed and dated ‘Wilhelm Sasnal 2001' on the overlap.
Provenance Marc Jancou, New York Exhibited Eindoven, Van Abbemuseum, Wilhelm Sasnal 18 February – 30 April, 2006 Catalogue Essay Wilhelm Sasnal makes paintings in response to the abundance of imagery that emerged in Eastern Europe after the fall of communism. No two Sasnal paintings ever look alike: he makes pop paintings, naturalistic paintings and abstracts... Wilhelm Sasnal is one of the most celebrated artists to emerge from Eastern Europe in recent years. Working from his home country Poland, he uses painting as a means to intimately negotiate his position within (new) capitalist culture. Sasnal's work is prolific, varied and deliberately unclassifiable as a strategy. P. Ellis, About Wilhelm Sasnal and his art' taken from www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk Read More
