Description

Visual Artist Piotr Szyhalski emigrated from his native Poland in 1990 where he studied illustration, poster design, and photography at the Academy of Visual Arts in Pozan. Political propganda in every form was ubiquitous in Poland, which at the end of WWII found itself under the influence of the Soviet Union. Profoundly affected by this imagery, which was so pervasive in his culture, Szyhalski began to create photographs, posters, and murals in the style of propaganda imagery, applying the very skills in which he was trained. Using original and found imagery, combined with finely honed skill in design and typography, Szyhalski began to construct new works of visual propaganda, ones in which he was in control of the messages they communicated.
