Summary/Abstract: Leszek Dunin Borkowski in his creative practice, artistic programmes and criticism preached the postulate of “umnictwo”. This was the term used for censorship reasons and meant the art that pursued the cultural discourse with the social and political environment. Therefore, an artist should be a priest of divine ideas and as a prophet should promote democratic and freedom-inspiring programmes.
