round 1, poll 2

Widok na dworzec:

painted circa 1935

so Nikifor was a Lemko painter who lived in poverty in Krynica-Zdrój

he was self-taught, painted on any sheet of paper he could find, mostly panoramas of Krynica

probably had some kind of intellectual disability

he had difficulties writing; the captions he wrote on his paintings are full of spelling errors

considered one of the most prominent representants of naive art

so anywayyy there is a gallery of his art in Krynica and i absolutely adore it, not only this one but all of them. the lines, the colours, the perspective! just lovely. and Nikifor himself was such an interesting figure in art history

Pogrzeb huculski:

painted in 1882

it's one of Axentowicz's many paintings depicting Hutsul culture

the landscape! the beautiful greek catholic church!

i do love funeral scenes and i do love snowy landscapes

the little kid on the right is probably my favourite detail here tho. if you zoom in she's looking right at you. creepy baby

there is something really precious to me about a funeral being such a colourful scene against the empty winter landscape

On the second floor of the Ukrainian Museum in the East Village, visitors are transported to the distinctive landscape of the Carpathian Mountains through more than 100 watercolors and sketches by the self-taught Lemko artist Nikifor (1895–1968). Born with a speech impediment that made him unintelligible to many people, Nikifor turned to drawing as a means of communication. He almost obsessively depicted the world around him, creating anywhere from a dozen to 100 sketches and paintings a day.

Curated by Myroslava Mudrak, The Ultimate Outsider is a compelling introduction to the artist, who is largely unknown in the United States despite being one of Central Europe’s most famous outsider artists.

i saw a lovely post about wanting to draw like a kid and the beauty and confidence of childrens art. may i interest you all in some art by nikifor krynicki? as a genuine example of naïve art, i feel like his work really embodies those elements, and is just so vibrant and excellent and exciting to look at.

I’m finally reading Ravishing Allure and I’m just so in love with it. I’m on Chap 7 and I know I’m probably shooting in the dark but! I think Seraph’s stalker is Nikifor.

He’s one of the few names I noticed being seen. Plus in the first chapter I remember they were talking about how Nikifor couldn’t marry Aly due to his social standing. So that means that they could’ve been together for a couple years. Aly treats Seraph like a sister and best friend so Aly most likely introduced Nikifor to Seraph.

He’d easily be looked over because Aly is Nikifor’s soulmate so he wouldn’t be a suspect. I also believe that many in the AMA would recognize Nikifor and go about their day because that’s Aly’s soulmate. So of course he’d be able to go in and out. Aly and Seraph talk about everything so Seraph most definitely told her that she was getting a new bodyguard.

Of course I’m spit balling but I really think it’s Nikifor. AGAIN I am absolutely in love with Ravishing Allure and I’m inhaling the chapters so fast!!!

Thank you!! I'm glad you're liking it. That's a pretty interesting theory, I like it! It would definitely cause some big drama, lol.

jasiński, nikifor, stryjeńska?

jasiński: co myślisz o burzliwej pogodzie?

Serce mówi: uwielbiam burze uwielbiam burze uwielbiam burze, ale mózg mówi, że mam płochliwego psa, który się burz boi... Więc niestety nie mogę za bardzo się taką pogodą cieszyć. Ale jak wiem, że nie ma akurat ze mną mojego pieska i że się nie denerwuje, to burze to moja ulubiona pogoda.

nikifor: co sądzisz o swoim rodzinnym mieście?

Kocham je, nienawidzę go, chciałbym, żeby spłonęło, nigdy nie chcę go opuszczać. Skomplikowana sprawa, pewnie głównie związana z nostalgią.

Jego jedyny problem to to, że prawdopodobnie byłoby jednym z pierwszych celów, gdyby Polska miała wejść w konflikt zbrojny z kimkolwiek. Nie jest to fajna świadomość!!!

stryjeńska: jaka jest Twoja ulubiona (lokalna lub inna) rzecz związana z folklorem? (stroje ludowe, tradycyjne pieśni, styl architektury, legendy...)

Ogólnie kultura bliskich mi lesioków, a gdybym miał wybrać z tej kultury jedną rzecz, to pewnie byłyby to stroje.

Może się nie wydają najciekawsze, ale dla mnie właśnie ich prostota jest strasznie interesująca! Subtelna, ale widoczna różnica od zwykłych polskich strojów ludowych jest ciekawa, bo podkreśla wpisany w historię lesioków pewien stopień izolacji od innych grup etnograficznych. Plus hafty!!! Hafty!!!

Ktokolwiek będziesz w Kolbuszowskiej stronie, polecam się wybrać do skansenu i pooglądać przynajmniej sektor lasowiacki - przeciekawa sprawa‼️

abakanowicz, łempicka, nikifor?

evening!

abakanowicz: do you have a favourite art installation?

I don't know that many installations to be completely honest, it's a gap I hope to mend as I go on. but I must say, if any of you fine countrymen ever have the opportunity to visit Niewidzialna Wystawa, you simply must.

łempicka: if you were to plan and execute an art exhibition (and had unlimited funds and connections etc), what would be the theme and what pieces would you exhibit?

I've already answered the same question here, however, an exhibition showing the timeline of Polish typography, it could be in equal parts a lesson in history of the alphabet & written language, as well as an aesthetical journey through different styles, fonts and what art movements they correspond to

nikifor: how do you feel about your home town?

I would die for it
