Youth portfolio - a space for new talent

Youth portfolio is a section in the printed "Photography Quarterly" and here on our website. It's a space for new talent!
This is the place where we present the works of artists at different stages of their artistic journey - regardless of age.

If you feel that your photographs deserve a premiere, a debut then this is where it can happen!

How does it work?
Recruitment for the Youth Portfolio is ongoing - you can submit your proposal at any time; regulations are available here - you accept it by sending your application here.

Write a few words about yourself and your photos. Describe the titles of your photos, or you can title the whole series.

From among the submitted proposals, we select the most interesting photographs, which we publish:
- Once a quarter in print - Each edition of the magazine presents one photographer along with a text by the editors or a text from the author himself.
- On the website - Here we publish selected sets of photos so that even more people can see them.
- We also try to present your works on our social media channels (more often Instagram, in the future also on Facebook)
- We want to promote you further! And we are in the process of coming up with more promotional activities!

Offer your photographs for publication.
We look forward to your vision and the story you want to tell with images.

Isolation differently? Creation of Zbigniew Piotrowski
It seemed that after the covid-19 pandemic, isolations, lockdowns, restrictions - first of all, we have had enough of this topic in a collective way, secondly, and probably inextricably linked to the first - the topic has been saturated to the core. That nothing can be said, written, done anymore. And even if, the reaction of readers, viewers, audiences can only be one. It is not...
Catherine Zawadzka's collision with the illusion of the virtual world
As part of the Youth Portfolio series, the author sent 3 series, of which we have chosen the one titled Deficiencies for publication. In it, the author touches on a number of problems that not only she faces. She is painfully affected by the unexpected departure of both her parents, and seeks rescue and solace in photography and social media. The latter fail her severely. Severely enough that...
Eastern Poland in the photography of Maciej Sztorc
Looking at the photographs Maciej Sztorc sent to us, the first thought that came to my mind was to recall a saying by Andrzej Jerzy Lech: "the most important thing for your camera is what is 15 meters away from it". The meaning, and therefore also the implications of this phrase, are so capacious and extensive that developing it one could write many a dissertation. One...
Provincial Road Photographer
There is a good chance that I simply have not reached any publications where I would have found a definition of "road photographer" or at least seen the names of photographers and photographers who are attributed to this phenomenon. However, I dare say that such definitions and phrases have already appeared more than once in various records. Also, I am striking a small irony at the very popular thought that....
Maciej Bonk - this time in Ponidzie
The author of the photographs wrote thus: The primary function of my photographs is to be more in a given place. The secondary is to show others how I see a place with the hope that someone will find such a view interesting, or similar to their own. The decision to publish photos from Ponidzie is not an easy one, as there are probably hundreds of photos taken there every day, many of which...
Taming loneliness by Michal Lewandowski
"Boxing is not chess - here you have to think". - this golden thought of Jerzy Kulej, Olympic boxing champion from many years ago, has gone down in history not only of funny sayings of athletes. It was so surprising and "improbable" that it prompted... thinking, which, however, does not have to be boxing. Michal Lewandowski is a chess player, but also a photographer with a love of nature, who, with the help of...
Self-therapy with self-portraits - Matthew Kowalczyk
There is probably no photographer who has not taken a self-portrait. The most famous among the pioneers of the invention of photography was certainly Hippolyte Bayard, who as early as 1840, photographing himself as a "suicide," expressed his great regret to the whole world that it was not to him that the palm of precedence in the invention of photography was awarded, but to some Daguerre or Talbot. Also, later artists very...
