I honestly believe that Polish people are polite and kind. Despite deep rooted stereotypes. Poles in comparison to other Europeans are equally good. We are well mannered and sociable. But I think we have different approach to ourselves and to foreigners. We like to invite and welcome people to Poland. But when it comes to interactions between us, we sometimes act bitter. It’s just the matter of our culture. But I know from the experience that people from abroad usually say only nice things about Poles. We are known for our generosity and kindness. And it’s crucial to keep that opinion true.
One of the most famous paintings of the even more famous artist Andy Warhol’s portrait of Marilyn Monroe (1962) will go on auction in May in New York. It is estimated for £150m and which will make Andy’s painting the most expensive 20th century artwork ever auctioned. In addition, the artist will become the greatest artist of the modern age therefore beating Pablo Picasso. Personally, I consider Warhol as one of my favorite artists, so it’s hard for me not to be biased. I believe his artwork deserves to be valued highly. He was able to grasp a modern idea of art which can exist at the same time as the vastly-changing world of the 60’s, 70's and 80's. Also, people like to make little of his artwork into simple pop art, but he was a thinker, who lived way before his times. And the way that he changed the perception of the public about an artist in the culture is just remarkable. source:https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2022/apr/13/yours-for-200m-how-warhol-overtook-picass...
You seem to be quite optimistic about Poles and our image abroad. I thought it was much less rosy.
