Bogdan Korczowski was born 1954 in Krakow, the city with which he still feels emotionally connected. In 1978 he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, in prof. Wlodzimierz Kunz's studio. His debut was at a Nowa Ruda festival in 1974 with a performance White Bicycle. In 1980 he moved to Paris where he currently resides and where, in 1985, he graduated from State College of Fine Arts in prof. Abraham Haddad's studio. In 1986 he was presented with the Regional Council of Ile-de-France in Paris award. In 1988 he received Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant in New York to where he frequently returned. In 1980 Korczowski began a series of paintings The Letters, where within his canvases, he started to include embellished symbols and ideograms.
In June 1989 a large exhibition Korczowski-Paintings took place in Warsaw's National Gallery of Art Zacheta. It was a proof that despite his debut as a performance artist and general tendency for the contemporary art to experiment with new, cutting edge concepts, Bogdan Korczowski remained faithful to the most traditional art medium: oil painting.
