Jacek Stryjenski was a Swiss painter and decorator (born 1922 in Kraków, died 1961 in Geneva). Jacek Stryjenski made frescos in churches in Switzerland (mosaics in St. Francis Church in Geneva) and France, as well as murals and mosaics that can be seen in various places in Geneva. He also designed many marionettes and much of the décor for the Puppet Theatre of Geneva.
He created the Grand Théâtre de Genève's iron curtain and ceiling made of gold- and silver-leafed sheets of brushed aluminum that has more than a thousand "stars" made of glass lights.
