Karin Jaroszynska

Finnish/South African 1934-2014 

Karin Jaroszynska, a native of Helsinki, Finland, pursued her education at the Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki from 1951 to 1956. It was there that she met and married her fellow student, Tadeusz Jaroszynski, in 1954. The couple moved to South Africa in 1957. Jaroszynska held her first solo exhibition at Gallery 101 in Johannesburg in 1965, followed by another at Gallery Strindberg in Helsinki later that year. She would participate in numerous solo and group shows throughout her career, including frequently alongside her husband. Jaroszynska and her family relocated to Sweden and later to France. Her artwork, which is figurative and surrealistic with playful elements, is housed in public collections such as the Johannesburg Art Gallery, Pretoria Art Museum, and Iziko South African National Gallery.
