W stronę kultur współczesnych i ludowych. Podstawy twórczości Mieczysława Górowskiego
Towards Modern and Folk Cultures: The Basis of Mieczysław Górowski’s Work

Summary/Abstract: The article is, to some extent, an excerpt from a doctoral thesis prepared under the supervision of Prof. Lechosław Lameński at the Department of Modern Art History of the Institute of Art Sciences of the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin. Mieczysław Górowski was involved in many kinds of creative work, which he understood very broadly: painting, design, art theory, psychology, and collecting. At the root of it all was the countryside and the folklore, rituals, and simplicity related to it. No matter what he did, he put the human being at the center of his interest. Rather than being interested in physical appearance, he paid attention to man as a certain configuration of thoughts and emotions. He studied and was curious about everyone. The article discusses the aspects that formed the basis of his work.
