About the Foundation
This website is devoted above all to Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski - his life, work, artistic legacy and the memory of him.
Its main aim is to popularise knowledge about the artist and to present his paintings, exhibition activity, publications, events and research projects connected with his work. We also wish to bring to the fore the places associated with Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski and to document the Foundation's activities to protect and promote his heritage.
This work is complemented by presenting the history of the Wierusz-Kowalski family. The website contains genealogical information, biographies of selected family members, archival materials, photographs and a family tree that is still being developed.
The website is intended to be a meeting place for people interested in the work of Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski, the history of art, genealogy and the history of his family.
We invite you to explore the collected materials, to follow the Foundation's current activities and to join us in further discovering the history of the artist and the Wierusz-Kowalski family.
