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...
Pawel Zak - photographs that avoid words
Pawel Zak is one of those photographers who, with incredible lightness, can use what the old masters used to call "the light of the image." The repeatedly shown and awarded series of his photos entitled "Stories" is an eloquent example of great visual culture in an artist whose works completely belong to the latest currents in contemporary photography. "Stories" is, in my opinion, a multi-layered ...
"White and Red" by Mark Lapis
"White and Red" is a long-term social project of documentary filmmaker Marek Lapis, who uses the medium of photography to describe how the colors white and red function in the consciousness of society. In times of transformation and turbulent contemporary social and political changes, these colors take on special significance in public space. The photos that make up the publication "White and Red" come from about 200 trips throughout...
Self-therapy with self-portraits - Matthew Kowalczyk
There is probably no photographer who has not taken a self-portrait.

Also, later artists very...
Tor Eigeland - credible news media is more important today than ever
On the memorable January 8, 1959, Fidel triumphantly entered Havana. He had won his "revolutión." I didn't get to talk to him the first time, but I did manage to exchange a few words with Raul Castro, Fidel's brother. Raul told me that in the city of Camaguey they would be trying and dismembering counter-revolutionaries and would I be willing to witness these events? Very politely...
Natalia LL is no longer with us - we recall two articles
On Friday, August 12, 2022, Natalia Lach-Lachowicz, one of the most recognizable figures in Polish photography, died at the age of 85. "Kwartalnik Fotografia" wrote about the Wroclaw-based artist many times between 2000 and 2012, and to check it out and get to all the articles it is best to look at the Great Personal Index, which is part of Krzysztof Szymoniak's book, Without Aperture - 13 years....
Endless province - Marcin Urbanowicz
Photography in itself is never the end. Photography captures the one-of-a-kind "Here and Now," because, after all, the second before the photo is taken and the second after the photo is taken, the world is completely different. It does not end, whether it is reflected on paper or already beyond the sight of man. It continues even without our knowledge. That's why photography, especially photography....
