Oskar Derych, visual and sound artist, art historian and former Vice-Rector for Development at the European Academy of Arts, lives and works in Warsaw. His works have been presented at prestigious exhibitions and displays in key European cultural centers, including Venice, London, and Zurich. His art attracts the attention of collectors seeking authentic, moving narratives and deep emotional engagement in contemporary painting. Something more than decoration matching curtains or a TV frame. The works of Oskar Derych have found a place among collectors in Amsterdam, Paris, Bruges, London, Hobro, The Hague, Brussels, and Warsaw. My paintings are rooted in the tension between control and imperfection, structure and fracture. I am drawn to what resists polish — the raw edges, marks, ruptures, and traces that reveal a more honest human presence. Rather than pursuing decorative beauty, I create work that invites slower looking and deeper emotional engagement. I work across abstraction, expressionism, and figuration, allowing each series to develop its own language according to the subject and conceptual direction. This flexibility is intentional: it lets me build bodies of work that feel singular, cohesive, and alive, while remaining open to atmosphere, movement, and psychological depth. For collectors, my work offers more than visual impact. It carries narrative weight, emotional resonance, and a strong conceptual identity. Each painting is meant to hold its place as an enduring object — one that continues to reveal new meaning over time, and one that speaks to authenticity, individuality, and the complexity of lived experience
