Jan Dobkowski - a painter and graphic artist. In 1968, he graduated from the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts in the studio of Prof. Jan Cybis and together with Jerzy Zieliński, he formed the group Neo-Neo-Neo, which operated until 1970. The exhibition "Secession-Secession?" contributed to his success in Paris and his participation in the exhibition of Polish art, "Polish Contemporary Painting: Sources and Searches." The New York Guggenheim Museum purchased the first red-green painting from Dobkowski's most famous series. During the period of martial law, he participated in actions of independent culture. Dobkowski was a grantee of the Kosciuszko Foundation in New York (1972); he received the C.K. Norwid Award (1978); the Jan Cybis Award for his entire body of work (1994); and he has been awarded the Silver Medal "Meritorious for Culture - Gloria Artis." Line and edge play is a true magic in many of the artist's works. Expressive forms full of biological energy are the main characteristics of Dobkowski's art. He boldly uses vivid colors in his works, playing with the line, which becomes a frequent theme in his creative endeavors.
