Lou Jaworski
1 August 2021 - 31 May 2022
Lou Jaworski (*1981 in Warsaw, Poland) studied sculpture and installation at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich under Prof. Gregor Schneider and received his diploma with distinction in 2016. From 2017 to 2020 he has been working as an assistant of Prof. Gregor Hildebrandt's class. Jaworski works with magnetic materials, iron, graphite, meteorites as well as marble for his installations and sculptures. His works are characterized by the tense interaction of material autonomy, ephemeral abstraction and physical laws and are often concept-based and implemented in a site-specific manner. The artist deals with metaphysical questions associated with formal reduction as well as with the phenomena of human perception.
His works were u. a. exhibited in Phingyao (China), New York, Munich and Tel Aviv. In 2017 Jaworski was part of the Festival of Future Nows at Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin, under the direction of Udo Kittelmann. In 2016 he received the debut award from the Bavarian State Ministry for Education and Culture and in 2017 the studio grant from the City of Munich. Lou Jaworski's works are part of the Bavarian State Painting Collections and are represented in private collections in Germany and Switzerland.
