Biography
In 1909-11 he studied sculpture at the Cracow AKS under Konstanty Laszczka and at the same time history at the Jagiellonian University. He supplemented his sculpture studies in Paris - at the turn of 1911/12 - in the atelier of, among others, F. Colarossi. After returning to Poland, he lived permanently in Warsaw. From 1915 he was a member of TPSP, as well as a member and long-time president of the Sculpture Society. He resided in France again from 1923-26. After World War II, during which his two Warsaw studios were destroyed, he settled in Katowice. He exhibited in Paris (1911), Warsaw, Krakow, Poznan and Lodz. In 1926, his bust 'Youth' was purchased for the Luxembourg Museum in Paris. He created portraits, figural and allegorical compositions, as well as tombstone sculptures and monuments.
