AMONG ANGELS AND SAINTS—THE EVOLUTION OF THE SCULPTURAL FORM IN THE WORKS OF MARYLA LEDNICKA-SZCZYTT
The article is an interpretation of the religious output by Maryla Lednicka-Szczytt. The unaffecting artist remained in the shadow of portrait sculpture and sacral sculpture, which played a significant role in Lednicka’s artistic biography, providing an excuse for her personal artistic expression while at the same time enabling the utilisation of formal stylistics—with which the artist was the most familiar. Criticised by experts, not deprived of a particular naiveté, her works were not created for people, but for an unknown God and—most importantly—for herself, and this meant they did not have to meet the demands of critics. Lednicka’s irreligious fervency demonstrated in sculpture compensates for the anatomical shortcomings and the formal imperfections of her works, making her an imperfect, yet painfully authentic artist.
