“Emaciated bodies, skeletons, phantom-like apparitions and post-apocalyptic landscapes – all of these are motifs that the Polish artist Zdzisław Beksiński (1929-2005) captured on canvas. All of these paintings have something ephemeral, other-worldly, something difficult to capture. Even if you take a closer look it is difficult to get a clear idea of what you are seeing.” Exhibition to be seen at the Phantastenmuseum in Vienna until 22 June >review & photos
