Jerzy Bereś

Born September 14, 1930 in New Sącz – died December 25, 2012 in Kraków. He was a Polish sculptor, author and performance artist.

In his work he used artistic manifestations. His works and projects are often political and ethical statements, preaching the demand of the “creative act” on the subject. Jerzy Bereś developed his own unique style, but his practices were related: happening and these performance, although I never admit to any relationship with these trends in the arts demonstrations, calling their actions (actions, ” Masses “). Beres’ Art is an art symbol, a metaphor, and a metaphysics. His art is the result of a dispute with known artist of the twentieth century such as the dramatists Witkacy, Kantor and conceptual artist, Duchamp.
