Marek Grechuta - Tumblr Posts
I've travelled to Zamość recently to celebrate my birthday and I couldn't help but allow myself to commit some innocent celebratory fangirling

My wife Dana by Marek Grechuta, 1970s:
propaganda: I know it's not the best artwork of his, amongst paintings or otherwise, but I just thought that his dedication and adoration for his wife is so adorable:) Dana is such a treasure honestly, she took care of her husband while he was suffering from bipolar disorder and side effects from medication, and even though Marek died many years ago, she still keeps memory of him and shares it with the world to this day. Ah, and how many truly amazing songs were written by Grechuta which were dedicated to his wife to whom he remained faithful 'til the end of his life<3
about the artist: IMPORTANT ARE THE DAYS WHICH WE DON'T KNOW YET but seriously, who DOESN'T know who Marek Grechuta is :D He's one of the coolest Polish musicians and songwriters of the PRL era, but, as this painting shows, a man of many talents, too He actually was heavily influenced by Witkacy and Wyspiański when it comes to visual art, which is not surprising giving the fact he dedicated two songs to the art of the latter and the whole album, Szalona lokomotywa, to the poetry of the former. Either way, I'll be glad to reopen Marek to some people by submitting this piece (and some others hehe)
