AFTERIMAGE\u00a0<\/strong>(in Polish:\u00a0<\/span>Powidoki<\/em>)<\/span>
In post-war Poland, the famous painter\u00a0<\/span>W\u0142adys\u0142aw Strzemi\u0144ski<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0taught at the Lodz Academy of Fine Arts. He had achieved notoriety before the world war broke out due to his nature and the \u2018unist\u2019 movement which he helped to found. His students continued to regard him as the „saviour of modern painting” but the Ministry of Culture took an entirely different view. Unlike his counterparts who had complied with the party line and accepted the principles of socialist realism, Strzemi\u0144ski refused to compromise when it came to his art. He refused to follow party orders, which led to him being expelled from the university and the Union of Artists. In spite of this, his students continued to visit him and take private lessons with him. They noted his theory of vision and set great store by his opinion on their work. Yet Strzemi\u0144ski, who lost an arm and a leg, and who subsequently found himself without a source of income, slipped into severe poverty and his health declined. This did not prevent the communist authorities from continuing to work on ruining him.\u00a0<\/span>
