works and authors coming from art schools, the winners of the scholarship and
a grant for 2007/2008. Nine academic centres in Poland recommended eighteen
young artists, who presented 50 drawings and prints, and the winners of this year’s

Mrs. Agnieszka Lech-Binczycka, recommended by Professor Wlodzimierz Kotkowski, Head of the Department of Printmaking, Faculty of Art, Rzeszów University, is a fifth-year student. Her studio work and her artwork are in the figurative convention, and her works are strongly expressive and marked with her personal vision.
