Jacek Tylicki quote: "Art happens all the time, everywhere. All we have to do is to keep our minds open" Tylicki sends into the wind, the rivers or the forests sheets of canvas or paper, and leaves them for a long while in a natural environment, thus forcing upon Nature an attitude previously reserved to the artist: the creation of a form. Jacek Tylicki was born in 1951 in Sopot, Poland. Since 1982 he lives in New York. Natural Art project was initiated by Tylicki in 1973. In his catalogue to an exhibition in Gallery 38 - Copenhagen in 1976, Tylicki writes: "The Universe is the greatest piece of art" "Avoiding all control, I spread out sheets of white paper or canvas in the nature. For some time they stay in the grass, in the rushes of river, in the meadows or among the rocks. Nature registers its presence, covering the surface of the paper with colors, forms and tracks. This process is controlled by a number of agents; such as space and time, substance and causality. It is governed by nature's intensity. It does not, depend on man's interference. Nature is the greatest and most admirable creator, and unlike logic it doesn't fail. The artist obligation is not to shape - handicraft, but to understand the riddles of reality. In such conception of Art there lies, as in the Universe itself, an immense richness, and a countless variety of forms." Natural Art and other artistic actions and artworks of Jacek Tylicki are presented in this book, with a comprehensive introduction by Leszek Brogowski. Book contains 37 full color illustrations.
