1882 -1932 · Krakow, Paris and poetic modernity
Tadeusz Makowski was born in O¹wiêcim in 1882 and died in Paris in 1932. He studied literature at the Jagiellonian University while attending the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow between 1903 and 1908. Having left for France at the end of 1908, he settled permanently in Paris. In contact with the cubists of Montparnasse - Le Fauconnier, Gleizes, Metzinger, Léger and Archipenko - he simplified volumes and introduced geometry into his landscapes, still lifes and figures. During the First World War, his stays in Brittany and the French countryside opened him up to popular art, the peasant world and a more seemingly naive painting.

During the First World War, his stays in Brittany and the French countryside opened him up to popular art, the peasant world and a more seemingly naive painting. From 1918, childhood became a theme central: his characters with triangular heads and bodies constructed like toys are never simple illustrations. They imitate the adult world, revealing its rites, solitude and sometimes worry. In recent years, light cuts shapes with almost cubist rigor while preserving a very gentle emotion. Les Sabotiers belongs to this maturity: faces-masks, professional tools and gestures compose a scene where daily work and existential theater merge. Makowski thus unites Parisian experimentation, folklore and psychological depth in an immediately recognizable language. The "Tadeusz Makowski" selection includes opposite Les Sabotiers. Its reading favors the story.
Makowski geometries the figure without depriving it of soul: behind the mask, the puppet or the craftsman remains a silent interior life.
