Henryk Stażewski, born on December 16, 1894, in Warsaw, Poland, was a pivotal figure in Polish abstract art. After studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw post-World War I, he emerged as a key member of the "Blok" movement. His art is known for its geometric forms, clear lines, and harmonious colors, drawing influences from the avant-garde and constructivism. Stażewski's works are housed in several prestigious collections, including the National Museum in Warsaw, the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, Zachęta National Gallery of Art, and The Art Institute of Chicago. He passed away on August 29, 1988, in Warsaw, leaving behind a significant legacy as one of the most important Polish artists of the 20th century, whose influence continues to resonate in both Polish and international art circles.
