When Art Trumps Singing On The Family Tree

It's Hard to Face up to Kings and Queens
2003, Zdzislaw Sikora
"Studying art is somewhat unusual in Sikora’s family, where traditionally everyone has studied music. His grandmother was an opera singer, his sister is a conductor in New York, and even his daughter today enjoys singing. 'I personally couldn’t stand the idea of being in a little room practicing by myself for five or six years,' he says. 'Since I was the kid who could draw, I wanted to be in an open studio with other art students where something is always happening.'" [Source]

Zdzislaw Sikora's work has been presented in more than 35 one- or two-man shows. In addition, he has been invited to exhibit in more than 50 invitation exhibitions
