Magdalena Spasowicz studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw at the Faculty of Painting with professor Jan Cybis and the graphics department with professor Tadeusz Kulisiewicz. She received her diploma in 1953. Her works have been presented in numerous exhibitions in Poland, London, New York, Bratislava, Washington, Moscow, Berlin, Budapest and are to be found in private and public collections around the world. In 2017, two individual exhibitions of the artist took place, one at the Regional Museum Kozienice Palace and the other at the Museum of Western Mazovia in Żyrardów. Spasowicz has been spending every single moment on painting for many years now. Most of her paintings are monochromatically colored landscapes, of places where the eye cheers the soul with a sight close to heart, known and well remembered. French paintings of Pissarro and Utrillo have been a very important inspiration for Spasowicz. A desire to still-frame every moment when the artist meets nature and beloved places are imperative, which obliges to come back to canvas and paint. The artistry of the places represented in the paintings of Spasowicz lies deeper, hiding in emotions. Spasowicz sacrifices her time and attention to them and in a way consecrates them at the same time.
