About the author:
Polde Mihelic (1923 Vrhpolje pri Kamnik – 2007 Oreshje) studied at the school of design and at the pedagogical academy, majoring in art classes. Until his retirement, he served as an art educator and prepared more than 35 solo art exhibitions, and participated in around 50 group exhibitions at home and abroad. He was a folk painter who conveyed to us in a mischievous and caricatured way the forgotten and disappeared world of peasant idyll, folk customs and Customs, celebrations and forgotten customs: processions, funerals, fairs, ohcets. Here he also included typical characters of people: pilgrims, village special people, shepherds, tenth brothers, peasants, village gossip girls, parishioners. Dr. Cene Augustine wrote about his works: according to Maxim Gaspari and GVIDO Birolla, Slovenians had few painters who revived the colorful appearance of the old Slovenian village in such a closed image, with such sensitivity and warmth as the Gorenjska painter Polde Mihelic. Moderna's work attracts us even more today, when the former image of our peasant settlements is dying, and when modern civilization with painful consistency Rejects Former values, material and spiritual.
V Galeriji Kranjske hiše bo od 4. februarja do 1. marca 2026 na ogled Pregledna razstava oljnih slik slikarja Poldeta Miheliča.

O avtorju:
Polde Mihelič (1923 Vrhpolje pri Kamniku – 2007 Orešje) je študiral na šoli za oblikovanje in na Pedagoški akademiji, smer likovni pouk. Do upokojitve je služboval kot likovni pedagog in pripravil več kot 35 samostojnih likovnih razstav, ter sodeloval na okrog 50 skupinskih razstavah doma in v tujini. Bil je ljudski slikar, ki nam je na hudomušen in karikiran način posredoval pozabljeni in izginuli svet kmečke idile, ljudskih šeg in navad, praznovanj in pozabljene običaje: procesije, pogrebi, sejmi, ohceti. Sem je uvrstil tudi tipične like ljudi: romarje, vaške posebneže, pastirje, desete brate, kmete, vaške opravljivke, župnike. Dr. Cene Avguštin je o njegovih delih zapisal: Po Maksimu Gaspariju in Gvidu Birolli smo imeli Slovenci le malo slikarjev, ki so pisano pojavnost stare slovenske vasi oživeli v tako sklenjeni podobi, s takšno občutljivostjo in toplino kot gorenjski slikar Polde Mihelič. Njegovo delo nas še bolj privlači danes, ko nekdanja podoba naših kmečkih naselij umira in ko moderna civilizacija z bolečo doslednostjo zavrača nekdanje vrednote, materialne in duhovne.
