Wilhelm Sasnal (born 1972, Tarnow, Poland) lives and works in Krakow, Poland. Primarily known as a painter, Sasnal has always been fascinated with film and completed Swineherd in 2008. Loosely based on a Hans Christian fable in which a prince masquerades as a swineherd to win the heart of a princess, Sasnal’s film is set on a farm in postwar Poland. Sasnal’s work is featured in the Art Gallery of Alberta exhibition REAR VIEW MIRROR , and has been described by Frieze Magazine as “a mixtape of Postmodern art histories, street savvy, awareness of recent political realities and a remarkable instinct for clean, coherent design.” Presented in partnership with the AGA, in conjunction with their exhibition REAR VIEW MIRROR.
