"Scope of vision" by Zbigniew Tomaszczuk - appendix to the monograph
A book dedicated to the work of Zbigniew Tomaszczuk was published by the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts already in 2018, but the book reached me only now, a few days ago, so I can write a few words of my complement only four years after the publication of the study. The publication was prepared very carefully and provides a comprehensive overview of the artistic achievements of Professor Tomaszczuk. Very insightful articles...
Ali Haj Suleiman - the war in Syria continues
I learned about Ali's photographs from international news outlets. The photographs of this young (born 1999) Syrian photographer became the subject of an international scandal by a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman named Zhao Lijian. The Chinese official used Ali's photos depicting a Syrian boy playing with an artillery shell as "proof" of the misery the United States has brought to Afghan (sic!) children. Ali Haj Suleiman, IdlibProblem...
Rafal Swosinski: I am interested in the image
Rafal Swosinski is one of those photographers who, instead of "philosophizing", simply prefer to photograph. And that he does not lack talent, beautiful photographs come out.... We are not interested today in the entire oeuvre of this author (there will still be time for that...), but only in a certain episode in his photography, namely the photos he took in Górka Klasztorna near Lobezenica....
A detailed plan for future surprises - an interview with Mateusz Sadowski
Magdalena Zolędź: How would you define your theoretical background? How does it influence your work? Matthew Sadowski: It depends on current fascinations. I would locate it in certain sections of fiction and popular science publications, rather than in art theory. The influence of these interests (on my work) is indirect. I assume that a work of art can have characteristics that are different and peculiar....
The light of Nordic darkness according to Agatha Mayer
The contrasting nature of the North makes one realize that in addition to the fairy-tale nature colored in watercolors by master illustrator and king of children's fantasy John Bauer, full of unusual creatures derived from Swedish folklore, there is also a nature full of anxiety, darkness and mysticism, reminiscent of Nordic shamanism and Old Scandinavian sagas. Bauer's illustrations captured the imagination of generations of Swedes. They believed that nature was a product of...
Artur Panczakiewicz - "Silence."
I tell the story of silence through photography. The inspiration is John Cage's piece 4'33" - its score could be white sheets of paper. Silence in music, which has its own weight and volume, is important because it creates space for emotions to resound. Non-acoustic silence, the silence of the inner landscape, as a state of consciousness, is the one that directs us towards ourselves. The silence of the silent cosmos, the harmony of the spheres....
"Hotel" by Krzysztof Goluch
I open the hotel door and the first thing that hits me is the solitude of the colors. Then there is silence, in which light subtly walks. It attracts my bewildered gaze, leads me discreetly, invites me to explore a world unknown to me. I turn the page, as if opening another door of another world written in light and silent colors. The more I discover, the faster I disappear; I disappear as a passive observer, as a human being,....
Dance of darkness in the light of photography - photographs by Maciej Rusinek
The Japanese ideogram for butoh consists of two elements: bu means dance, while toh means step. However, the original name had a certain addition. Ankoku Butoh meant the dance of darkness. In Maciej Rusinek's photographs, the dance of darkness is transformed into images of light. While dance expresses the pure energy extracted from the darkness of the human body, photography depicts the light that comes from it....
