Profile

Mariusz Kaldowski was born in 1962 in Poland. In 1987 he graduated with an MA from the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow. He is a painter, a print maker and a graphic designer. Currently he shares his time between his homes in Westcliff-on-Sea and Orneta in Poland.

Since coming to the UK in 1996 he has been busy creating, exhibiting and selling his work. Since 2002 he has been Artist in Residence in Regent’s Park; and since 2009 he has been working with the National Trust as their resident artist for the South East region.

Mariusz says:

“Both these appointments have been a joy to me, and both have broadened my horizons and my outlook beyond measure.”

His view of the natural world was recognised by the Award for ‘Expressing the Essential Spirit of Holland Park’. He has also received other numerous awards: 2006 – Main Prize Winner – editor’s choice of ‘The Artist Magazine’, and in the same year the Nina Hosali 1st Prize of the Free Painters & Sculptors Society. Other prizes include: Windsor & Newton, Pro Arte, Caran D’ache and Royal Talents.

He has also, for a number of years, been creating paintings illustrating classical music. In 2000 he completed a frieze (22 metres by 1.5 meres), entitled ‘Four Seasons, Four Stages of Life’, as a visual expression of Vivaldi’s music. This frieze is shown life as part of the classical performances of the Polish National Radio Orchestra and has been featured on Polish National Television. Following this he has completed four further parts to this frieze to Piazzolla’s version of the Four Seasons, and was commissioned to prepare a separate triptych to commemorate The Year of Chopin in 2010, shown on stage during recitals by prominent pianists.

As well as continuing his work as Artist in Residence, Regents Park, his links with the National Trust remain very strong, as evidenced by the 2019 Nymans solo show.

Notable exhibitions:

• Nymans, the National Trust (2019)
• Barbican Centre, London
• Bankside Gallery, London
• St. John’s Smith Square, London
• The Museum of Lancashire, Preston
• Palace of Art, Krakow, Poland

Profile

Painter of international renown for his cliff-top en plein air paintings, Paul Lewin was trained in Bristol and has since lived and worked in south-west Britain, much of this in West Penwith, the westernmost tip of Cornwall. He has had over 50 solo exhibitions and numerous group shows in the UK and overseas, including the 2016 exhibition ‘Newlyn Today – A Celebration of Cornish Art’.

He has painted in many locations throughout the UK and has gained a particular connection with its coastal fringes. Now living in West Cornwall with his family, he has returned to an area that he holds a great affinity for, and as such it continues to provide much of the subject matter and inspiration for his work.

His paintings have been purchased for collections throughout the UK, Germany, Mexico, USA, Australia and the Far East. In 2015 he was shortlisted for the ‘New Lights’ prize exhibition and was included in the subsequent travelling exhibition across northern England.
