Franciszek Wójcik (1903-1984) painter associated with the Zakopane artistic community, student of the Lviv State Industrial School. From 1932-1939 he studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow, including Sichulski, Weiss, Jarocki and Kamocki. In 1938 he leaves for a one-year scholarship to Rome, where he holds his first foreign solo exhibition. After returning to Poland, he lives in Zakopane and actively participates in the local artistic life. He paints landscapes, portraits and still lifes, and his numerous Tatra landscapes show inspiration from Kamocki's paintings. The Tytus Chałubiński Tatra Museum hosted an exhibition in a series presenting the work of artists from the Zakopane community, featuring selected landscapes by Franciszek Wójcik from the collection of the artist's granddaughter.
