One of the world's most celebrated surrealists, Rafal Olbinski has garnered more than 100 international awards for his artwork over the past 25 years. Olbinski (1943) immigrated to the United States from Poland in 1981. Soon, he established himself as a prominent painter, illustrator and designer. Olbinski's work is very similar to the work of the famous Belgian surrealist Rene Magritte; Olbinski describes his approach to painting and illustrating as "poetic surrealism". He has cited his influences as "everybody," specifically Saul Steinberg, Milton Glaser, Marshall Arisman and Brad Holland.

Rafal Olbinski's works are included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art (Poster Collection), the Carnegie Foundation in New York, National Arts Club in 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.

In 1994 he was awarded the International Oscar for The World's Most Memorable Poster, Prix Savignac in Paris.
