Beata Stankiewicz-Szczerbik – is considered one of the most talented and interesting personalities of Polish art glass. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts at the Faculty of Glass and Ceramics in Wrocław.

He creates unique pieces of glass. He designs and implements glass in architecture, an example of which are the stained glass windows in the Gothic church of St. Maciej in Wrocław. Her works can be found in the National Museums in Wrocław and Poznań, as well as in the City Museum in Jelenia Góra, the Polish Museum of Contemporary Glass in Sosnowiec and the Museum of the Academy of Fine Arts in Wrocław. The artist has participated in numerous individual and collective exhibitions. At home and abroad.

Krzysztof Kucharczyk wrote about the work of the artist: “In order to fully understand and learn about the creative path of Beata Stankiewicz-Szczerbik, the recipient must go beyond the glass matter in which he creates, abandon considering her art only in the context of the material he mainly uses. Her work is aimed at persuading the viewer to abandon the hermetic gaze, to cross the pre-iconographic boundary that the object itself undoubtedly sets. It is a world freed from the physical density of glass, it is a series of clues escaping the technological peregrination determined by the plastic properties of substances. It is an added value, fleeting associations, it is the root of an idea, concept, assumption. The content is conveyed through it and against the background of this material. The material becomes only a catalyst for expression, leaving formal attributes in the background. It is not about a pure depreciation of matter, but rather about shifting the “weight” of the species onto what is materially absent, onto the (u) volatile intention of the author. No matter what technique we deal with, the primary and most important feature of Beata Stankiewicz-Szczerbik’s works is their expressive power. “
