Polish posteredit
Ryszard Kaja was regarded as one of Poland's best selling and prolific contemporary poster designers. Following in the tradition of his father Zbigniew Kaja, member of the acclaimed Polish Poster School,[4] Kaja painted his posters using mixed techniques: “I use everything: pen, pencil, ink, color ink, gouache, coffee grounds, tea, ash—everything around me, not just the computer.”[5] He served as juror for many poster biennials including the Italian Poster biennial.[6] He was an honorary guest at the 2015 BICeBé Bienal del Cartel Bolivia (Biennial of Poster, Bolivia).[7] Ryszard lived in Wrocław, Poland where he worked on his "Plakaty z serii POLSKA"[8] (Posters from the series "POLAND") which included 120 posters featuring less well known towns and destinations within Poland.
