Decade on Fire

Born on the left bank of the Lower Rhine, owner of PPR Hamburg, the painter has lived in Hamburg for over thirty years. His feature film The New and Neverending Walk had its world premiere at the Hotel Atlantic in spring 2024. In addition to painting, Rafael R. Pilsczek has written fourteen books in a significant parallel world that draw on many genres and have always shown that the search for answers can be more important than having an answer to the world pressing questions.The art volume documents ten years of a rich life that was full of contradictions and sensitively anticipated the upheavals of the present in form, color and style. Without lapsing into a dystopian life, the paintings in oil, acrylic and graphite also show the joie de vivre and joy with which Pilsczek resisted the forebodings.
