Class VI Members

Director: Paweł Taranczewski
Secretary: Ryszard Otręba

  This Class was founded in 1994, after the PAU’s charter was amended to allow for its creation. The goal of the new Class was to include persons from the world of art among the members of the Academy, outstanding creators whose careers have made a significant contribution to the development of culture. The areas of artistic creativity represented in the Class include literature, music, architecture, painting, sculpture, theater, and film.

   The Class’s activities were inaugurated by two lectures, one delivered by Jerzy Nowosielski, The Growth of Consciousness in Time: Truth or Illusion? and the other - by Jan Józef Szczepański, The Concept of Morality in Literature.
The speakers at the Class’s meetings in recent years have also included Andrzej Wajda, Witold Cęckiewicz, Jerzy Jarocki, Stanisław Lem, Stanisław Rodziński, and Bronisław Chromy.
