The Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski Foundation
This website is primarily dedicated to Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski – his life, work, artistic legacy and memory.
Its main aim is to raise awareness of the artist, showcasing his paintings, exhibitions, publications, events and research projects related to his work. We also aim to highlight places associated with Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski and to document the Foundation’s efforts to preserve and promote his legacy.
This work is complemented by the presentation of the history of the Wierusz-Kowalski family. The website features genealogical information, biographies of selected family members, archival materials, photographs and a developing family tree.
The website is intended to be a meeting place for those interested in the work of Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski, art history, genealogy and the history of his family.
We invite you to explore the collected materials, follow the Foundation’s current activities and collaborate with us in further uncovering the history of the artist and the Wierusz-Kowalski family.
Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski remains at the heart of our work – his art, life and legacy serve as the starting point for the story of his family’s history and the times in which he lived.
