Anna Halarewicz
She is a fifth year student at the graphics faculty of the Fine Arts Academy in Wrocław. Also graduated with honours from the faculty of Artistic Education of plastic arts at the University of Opole. What attracts her most is the misty understatement that water-colour gives off. As a matter of fact, she is still looking for her own place in the arts. Moving on from her fascination with English romanticism or the pre-Raphaelites she heads for the newer and latest spheres of art. Fortunately, the pre-Raphaelites have not fallen totally by the wayside. It was then when the idea of the beautiful book was born. She focuses on the idea of and aims on returning beauty to the book and paying more attention to it also for aesthetic reasons.
She illustrated and was responsible for the graphics of Jacek Paciorek’s collection of poems The World Upside Down (Świat do góry nogami, Kraków 2007, Wilga Publisher), St. John’s Legends with illustrations by Jerzy Szołtysek, (Świętojańskie Klechdy z ilustacjami, Krapkowice 2005), a collection of poems I come from the Country by Marian Oszek (Pochodzę z kraju, Opole 2002), and a few mathematics textbooks, (Nowik Publisher 2002 and 2003).
Anna Halarewicz illustrated and was responsible for the graphics of Anna Mirowska’s poem The Angel Franek (Anioł Franek), which initiated a series of books by both authors.
