Mieczysław Piotrowski – Description of an Artist

Summary/Abstract: A text devoted to Mieczysław Piotrowski. Szwarc relates and describes successive stages in the development of an artist’s artist, devoting most space to his prose output. By analysing his novels in turn – The Gardeners (Ogrodnicy), Gold Wormm (Złoty robak), Backs to the Wall (Plecami przy ścianie), Four Seconds (Cztery sekundy), An Artist’s Travels Through Lorraine (Podróż Artysty przez Lotaryngię) – Szwarc shows the manner in which Piotrowski “played” with literary conventions, reaching his own unique solutions.
