Artur Majka was born in 1967 in Tarnow, Poland. Since 1992, he has been living and working in Paris. He graduated in architecture from the Cracow University of Technology and in art studies at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. This versatile education is reflected in his art, both through the use of various techniques, including acrylic painting, photography and screen printing (among others), but also in the diversity of his professional experience. Indeed, Artur Majka is not only a painter and photographer, but also works as a graphic designer: he produces illustrations for various publications and is the author of many posters. In addition, he often combines several techniques and styles in one work, which allows him to achieve an original effect and gives his works a new artistic dimension. At the same time, the artist remains true to his education: regardless of the technique used, the line is always the basis of the composition of all his works. It is both a starting point and an integral part of the result, also - or perhaps above all - in works bordering on figuration and abstraction. Artur Majka regularly exhibits his works in Poland, the US and France.
