Warren Niesłuchowski
Warren Niesłuchowski (October 11, 1946 – June 17, 2019) was an American-Polish artist, writer, editor, translator and Vietnam War deserter who "inspired philosophical questions for many about home, exile, and family."[1] According to ArtReview, his "nomadic lifestyle came to be considered as an artwork in itself."[2]
Early life
[edit]Born in a displaced person camp in Germany to a Polish-Ukrainian couple, Niesłuchowski's family immigrated to the United States and he was raised in New Bedford, Massachusetts.[1]
Legacy
[edit]In 2020, Joanna Warsza and Sina Najafi curated the exhibition “And Warren Niesłuchowski Was There: Guest, Host, Ghost” about Niesłuchowski's life. The exhibition opened at Cabinet magazine's event space in Berlin[3] before traveling to the Foksal Gallery Foundation in Warsaw.[4] A book of the same title was co-published that year by Cabinet Books and the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw.[5]
