Teresa Tyszkiewicz (1953–2020). She studied at the Warsaw University of Technology (diploma in 1978). From 1982 she lived in Paris. She entered the scene of the artistic avant-garde at the turn of the 1970s and 1980s as an author of experimental films. At the end of the 1970s, she made her first films and photographs together with Zdzisław Sosnowski. Her individual film productions from the beginning of the 1980s are now included in the iconic positions of feminist art. She also engaged in performance, photography, painting, drawing, and created spatial objects and sculptures. Her monumental paintings were usually created using pins. By sticking them into canvasses, paper, photographs, sheet metal, and various objects, the artist developed her own, very individual style and something that few artists have – the almost immediate recognisability of her works.
