How It Works, What It Does
Krzysztof Siatka
Art and Documentation No 22/2020
“As I was going through the artistic output of Wincenty Dunikowski-Duniko, an active participant in the art world of the 1970s, I came across several sketches of machines and drawings depicting physical processes...”
I am always changing (to remain myself)
Jan Stanisław Wojciechowski
O.pl Polish Culture Portal, 2006
“Duniko is one of the most important representatives of that narrow elite of debutants of the 1970s, who went abroad and thanks to their talent, personal determination and international position gained while still back in Poland, maintained high standard of their own art.”
Art – Reality – Game
Ryszard W. Kluszczyński
Kultura Współczesna (1/2004)
“Dunikowski’s art not only originates from, but still belongs to the circle in which art assumes the form of a unique set of games, outlined above. His affiliation with the artistic formation which emerged in the 1970s and lent impetus to the attitude/tendency described herein is hardly debatable.”
Wincenty Dunikowski-Duniko. Current Program
Grzegorz Dziamski

He Directly Personifies the ldea of Art
Jan Stanisław Wojciechowski
Catalog “My Best...“, 1995
“Through his many years of uncompromising practice, Wincenty Dunikowski has come to directly personify the idea of art. One has the urge to say that he »lives« in this idea, taking up the challenge of the times in which he lives.”
I am always changing
Konrad Scheurmann
Flash Art PE, 1/1990
Changes, variations, and the course of processes – these are the phenomena he encompasses, using various means of artistic expression; analyzes, using strikingly simple means; and presents visually. In this way he achieves startling effects, conveying his uncommon visual experiences and attitudes.
