Dominik Lejman

Dominik Lejman (b. 1969 in Gdańsk) studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk (1989–1993) and at the Royal College of Art in London (1993–1995). Since 2005, he has led the Painting Studio at the Magdalena Abakanowicz University of the Arts in Poznań. He is the recipient of several awards, including the Polityka Passport (2001) and the Berlin Art Prize (2018).
