Rafał Olbiński
Rafał Olbiński was born on February 21, 1943. He graduated from the Faculty of Architecture, Warsaw University of Technology. In 1981, he emigrated to the United States and soon became a well-known painter, illustrator and designer. Olbiński received more than 150 awards including Gold and Silver Medals awarded by the Art Directors Club of New York and Society of Illustrators in New York and Los Angeles. He also won the International Oscar for the most significant Poster of the Year, the Prix Savignac in Paris, Creative Review magazine Award in London for the Best British Illustration and Premio Divina Giulia Award for his outstanding contribution to contemporary art. His works were on the covers of numerous magazines such as Der Spiegel, as well as served for projects of posters for the Metropolitan Opera in New York, La Scala and other opera houses worldwide. Frank Fox talks about Olbiński in the article, “The World and I” in the publication of the Washington Times, “Poetry in color, Olbiński’s paintings are expensive, eerily peaceful and their solitude encounters the unexpected, the absurd that is meaningful.”

- Let The Memory Live - Original Charcoal on Sheet MusicLocated in Los Angeles, CARobert Lebsack creates artworks using mixed media with ink, acrylic, and charcoal on archival copies of newspapers, textbooks, and sheet music. As a visionary artist, Lebsack weaves thought-provoking narratives, delving into the social and cultural fabric by juxtaposing human subjects and surreal backgrounds. Imbued with layers of headlines, articles, and ads, his street art becomes a powerful platform for addressing pressing societal issues, from materialism and loneliness to environmental shifts and isolation. Lebsack’s artworks tell us stories about ourselves. They can filter our dreams and aspirations while visualizing edgy, half-buried perceptions troubling us about the world around us. Many of his paintings express courage and offer a form of engagement with our continually shifting surroundings. Lebsack created this original 12-inch high and 9-inch wide artwork using mixed media including acrylic paint, ink, and charcoal on sheet music. His imagery is hand drawn with great detail. This artwork is unframed and requires framing to be properly displayed. It is signed by the artist on the front. Convenient delivery is available for those in the local Los Angeles area, and affordable worldwide shipping is available for US and international art collectors. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. In Lebsack's own words, “It’s about new ways of thinking for future generations. Hopefulness in young dreamers and a paradigm shift away from conventional reasoning in thoughts and actions. Some social norms can be good but they can also hold some people back, stunting our growth individually and as a society.” Robert Lebsack received his formal training in illustration, design, and photography at California State University, Long Beach, where he earned a BFA degree in Illustration in 2004. After graduating, Robert went on to work full-time as a studio Artist/Muralist and Commercial Illustrator for an Interior Design Company where he designed graphics and painted murals for restaurants, schools, and universities throughout the country. With his industry experience, Robert moved on to focus on creating fine art. Lebsack's artworks have been showcased in exhibitions across the globe, including New York, Singapore, Zurich, Los Angeles, and Hong Kong, and have garnered praise and captivated major international art collectors, alongside a host of local Los Angeles celebrities.
