The graphic work of a radical innovator
This publication opens the multi-volume catalogue raisonné of Andrzej Wróblewski, one of the most distinctive figures of postwar Polish art. Volume I is dedicated to the artist's complete graphic oeuvre, encompassing the woodcuts, lithographs, and the iconic monotypes that occupy a singular position within his practice.

Drawing on more than a decade of research, the book brings together all known works in these media and introduces more than 30 works that have never previously been shown or reproduced. The catalogue raisonné comprises by an extensive visual section and scholarly essays that examine Wróblewski's work in relation to the Polish art scene of the 1940s and 1950s, the artistic traditions of Vilnius, the history of woodcut, and the broader development of monotype over the past four centuries.

With approximately 250 illustrations, the volume offers the most comprehensive presentation to date of this crucial yet still insufficiently studied aspect of Wróblewski's work, with the woodcuts reproduced at their original scale.
The balance between the extensive visual material and scholarly texts makes the publication suitable both for specialists and for a wider audience of art enthusiasts.

Andrzej Wróblewski (1927-1957) was one of the most important Polish artists of the second half of the twentieth century, as well as an influential art critic. Despite his remarkably short life and a career spanning barely a decade, he created over 200 paintings and a substantial body of works on paper, developing a radical visual language that continues to influence successive generations of artists. His work has been presented in major international solo exhibitions, including at the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven, Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid, and Moderna galerija in Ljubljana.
