Bio
Wojtek Więckowski is a painter and a musician with an international experience. For years he has been successful both in the music scene and in the artworld. He combines playing music with exhibiting his visual works. In formal experiments he searches for relation between forms of expression used in creating music as well as in working on paintings. Being still a young artist (age 33) he has played hundrets of concerts and organised more than 30 exhibitions of his own art. He creates his works on canvas using acrylic and thick black printing paint as a mix of painting and monotype. His solo concerts are accompanied by a projection based on his painted works. Apart from performing solo, he also plays with the Warsaw Improvisers Orchestra and many other combos with leading Polsh and international musicians based in Warsaw and involved with improvised and contemporary music scene. He made his debut on the phonographic market with an album entitled “Slyde Guitar” released by MyMusic/Universal. In his music he combines a fascination with widely understood American folk music and avant-garde of 20th century, as well as ambient and improvised contemporary electroacoustic music.
