… that Les UDs have a little country house with big Catskill views near Cooperstown, New York.
They own this
house, its twenty
acres and its
pond, because
this man —
— Wojciech Fangor,
lived up there
and asked his
friend, Jerzy
Soltan, to buy
some land
adjacent to his.
Fangor has been back in Poland for years (he said he got tired of spending most of his time chopping wood for the winter). Mr UD visited with him not long ago.
Fangor, among others, is featured in a new documentary about Polish poster art. The film’s producer is an art professor at Oregon State.
He looks a little gruff, doesn’t he? He’s enormous — very much over six feet — with a barrel chest and an insanely deep voice and the big rough hands of an outdoorsman who can build anything. But he’s sweet and affectionate and hilarious. He adopted every stray cat in Schoharie County and let them crawl all over him.
