"Rafal Olbinski has expanded the definition and laid the groundwork of what an artist can be in the 21st century. Born and educated in Poland, Olbinski's ties to European and American culture, as well as being an exponent of classical art, blurs the lines between the various disciplines of the arts by combining: painting, illustration, graphic design, typography and stage design into poignant and memorable images that help define our culture and raise the level of aesthetics for today's and future generations." -- dj flap.

"The forty posters produced by Rafal Olbinski as opera advertisements are a wonderful conglomeration of disparate art forms. During the twentieth century we have become accustomed to the blurring of boundaries between art and design. In this context Olbinski's work is significant for the particular combinations and the ultimate success of his final artistic solutions combining graphic design, painting and opera. When handled by Olbinski, what might seem improbable, results in a thoroughly sensitive and outstanding artistic object both conceptually and formally." -- rear dj flap. VG-/VG.
