My name is Adam Czech. I was born on 4th June 1976 in Katowice. In 1996 I graduated from The Secondary School of Fine Arts in Katowice. Next, from 1996 to 2000 I studied at University of Silesia, Art Institute. I graduated with distinction from Graphic Department from prof. Delecta’s class. This studying at University of Silesia made graphic my passion.
I take an active part in artistic life organizing individual exhibitions and participate in group exhibitions . My graphics take part in many competitions here and abroad My works were presented at exhibitions of many international competitions (Bulgaria, Lithuania, Mexico, Italy, Switzerland, Ukraine, China, Romania, Macedonia, Taiwan, Argentina, France, Belgium, Germany, Ghana …). Taking into consideration presentations in Poland I would distinguish exhibitions in Cracow, Lublin, Bytom, Ostrow Wielkopolski, Warsaw…
