Rafal Olbiński is a Polish illustrator, painter, and educator, living in the United States. He is considered one of the major representatives of the Polish School of Posters. Olbiński's work is very similar to the work of the famous Belgian surrealist Rene Magritte. The artist describes his approach to painting and illustrating as "poetic surrealism".  His works are included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art (Poster Collection), the Carnegie Foundation in New York, National Arts Clubin New York, the Smithsonian Institution and the Library of Congress in Washington, Suntory Museum in Osaka, Japan, the Poster Museum in Warsaw, Poland, and others throughout Europe and the United States. The current exhibition at the Palace of Fine Arts is the collection of Olbiński's past work.
