Waldemar Kolbusz lives and works in Boorloo / Perth and has been painting full-time and exhibiting regularly for over two decades both nationally and internationally, and is the founder and director of KolbuszSpace.
“Kolbusz – who is exhibited and collected nationally and internationally – creates deeply expressionistic work which penetrates sense of place, time and space to evoke a feeling and provoke in his audience an involved and sincere response. It is this inimitable clarity and pureness of expression that sets apart his decidedly sophisticated work.” (Fiona Kalaf, ex-Chair, AGWA)
Waldemar Kolbusz has undergone a revolution from within. His work stands as a testament to this rebirth of artistic desire through deeply pondered conversations with free-associational constructivism, reflexive figuration and post-painterly abstraction. His works offer the viewer a visionary experience realised through sublimely atmospheric paintings of worldly and poetic sensibility and sensitivity.” (Jove Winter)
“There’s a lovely fragility of line and texture that permeates Waldemar Kolbusz’s otherwise bold, abstract expressionist paintings. The Perth-born artist eschews crooked slabs of saturated colour with brittle etches and scratches, sponged texture and bleeding streams of excess paint. Indeed, Kolbusz’s abstract paintings may be void of figuration but they’re unyieldingly redolent.” (Dan Rule)
Kolbusz’ paintings have been commissioned for major projects and are in numerous collections nationally and internationally. Contact gallery for available works.
