L’artiste polonaise Marta Banaszak qui a passé son enfance à Alger, où sa famille a vécu pendant quatre années durant les années quatre-vingts, a développé un intérêt particulier pour la culture arabe et ce au cours de sa formation universitaire et artistique. Ceci l’a incité à suivre un stage de trois ans en Syrie à la faculté des Arts graphique de l’université de Damas. En 2016, elle a obtenu un doctorat à l’Académie des Beaux arts de Varsovie en Pologne. Les gravures et peintures à l’huile de ce travail doctoral démontrent l’influence de l’art islamique sur l’art occidental.
Son père, ingénieur civil, a enseigné à l’institut supérieur de formation en Bâtiment, à Rouiba. Par la suite, il a travaillé dans l’entreprise Cosider Groupe, où il a dirigé de grands chantiers à Alger ainsi que dans le Sahara. Sa mère Chimiste, travaillait à l’Ecole Nationale des Travaux Publics à Alger-Kouba.
Vernissage : le 6 avril 2017 à partir de 18h30

Engagé pour l’organisation d’exposition qui servent à la promotion de l’art de la gravure moderne, elle s’est réalisée dans la didactique. Co-fondatrice de “Printmaker’s Association KISSPRINT”
Les gravures de son doctorat sont basées sur les ornements de l’art islamique. Un style décoratif spécifique “ablaq” développé pendant l’Empire Ottoman et d’autres éléments géométriques de l’art islamique sont transposés dans un langage visuel simplifié et très personnalisé. Les formes raffinées de l’art islamique sont liées avec la pensée synthétique de l’école polonaise d’art graphique.
Biographie (Anglais)
Doctorate studies in the Graphic Department of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, Poland. In 2007 obtained her Master Degree in Prof. Rafal Strent class. In 2002 earned a Master Degree in the Faculty of Journalism & Social Sciences of the Warsaw University. Works mainly in printmaking (especially the linocut technique) and painting. Organizes exhibitions promoting the art of modern printmaking, fulfils in didactics. Three prints from her Master’s series “Poles” are now in the permanent collection of the National Museum in Warsaw. Other works are in the collection in the Museum of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, in Italy, in the National Museum in Damascus in Syria. The linocut „Figuration I” was awarded the 2102 MCKiS Directors Year Prize in the „Warsaw Graphics” competition. Doctorate’s series of large scale linocut prints is based on the ornaments of Islamic architecture. A specific decorative style ablaq developed in the Ottoman Empire and other geometric elements of the Islamic art were transposed into a highly personal, simplified visual language. With no context these abstract forms seem hard to classify and locate in time.
