Edición de la obra Flaszowie

This album presents works by four self-taught artists whose lives and work were intimately tied to their native soil, namely Hecznarowice in Bielsko County. The album's eighty pages contain more than sixty color photographs showing the art of the Flasz family: Antoni Flasz, Antoni Flasz of the Mountains, Antoni Flasz the Elder and Antoni Flasz the Younger. There are works of sacral art--crosses, roadside shrines and statues of saints--and also unique sculptured and handcrafted objects. The Introduction by Fr. Szymon Tracz is devoted to the painting of Our Lady of Częstochowa from the parish church in Hecznarowice, which became a sensational story of conservation work in 2017. Biographical notes on the artists complete the album.
