About the Artist:

Mieczyslaw Gorowski studied at the Cracow Academy of Fine Arts from 1959 to 1966 where he later served as a professor on the Faculty of Industrial Design. At the age of 25, he started designing posters and has since created over 400 posters. In addition, he worked in interior design and painting but, as the artist once said: "For many years I have been creating posters - this is the main direction of my artistic and design activity". His art can be found in collections in Europe as well as North America.

About the Poster: This contemporary poster from 2002 was designed to promote the Bain Mathieu and speaks to its former use as a family-friendly pool and bathing space. Built in 1930 and in service until 1990, the Bain Mathieu now offers reception halls and multi-purpose event spaces for the residents of the Centre-Sud area. The original pool and tiling are still intact and are representative of an era where public bathing facilities were commonly found around the city.

This poster is in excellent condition and ready to be framed. less
