Summary/Abstract: In the book of my collected writings on Bednarski’s art, the title shows my name appearing versus the artist’s name. In Latin versus means “against”, a word which excellently expresses my lack of faith in artists while, on the contrary, my faith in their work is big. Personally, I have always considered the artist a biological mistake in relation to his/her work, in fact the artist dies while the work remains. Talking about Bednarski, I would start exactly with this question: will his work remain? I would most certainly say yes, so let me try to explain why.
