The next stage on the way to a new ideal of beauty was the artists' long stay in the United States in 1988-90. Dowgiałło and Gruszczyńska, continuing to work on the development of their concept, became interested in digital art, which allowed them to significantly expand their creative possibilities.

They showed the effects of this American education at the collective exhibition "Polski Szyk" at Zachęta in Warsaw in 1991, where they were invited as representatives of a trend that had no analogy and opened new perspectives. "Gruszczyńska and Dowgiałło embody my longing for the Polish future," wrote Andrzej Bonarski, curator of this exhibition, ending his activity as the author of spectacular artistic shows.

The painting Supernova is the largest picture, painted by Dowgiallo in the 20th century.
It is 10 meters wide and 5 meters high and is only 1 meter shorter than the "Battle of Grunwald". It was established in 1990. as a painting-manifesto of a new direction in art - Futuro Baroque.
It was exhibited at the Zachęta National Art Gallery in Warsaw.
The image shows futuristic space architecture composed of buildings that are trees and plants. It was a completely pioneering image and the inspiration for many new projects created over the years. In the center of the image at the top there is the Vortex of Love, which is an emanation of pure cosmic energy - Etheroid, otherwise called Orgone.
