Contemplating the Georgian soul
Her greatest project is the Georgian villages. By photographing them, she tells a personal story about the extraordinary inhabitants, their happiness and sorrows, traditions and rituals, work and daily life...a rich and beautiful culture in danger of disappearing. Traveling to many hardship- and poverty-stricken regions, Natela Grigalashvili has been documenting isolated communities and ethnic minorities - Georgia's last nomads - for years....

Do you still remember me? PRL in the lens of local press photojournalists on the example of Cieszyn
Much more can probably be said on the subject by art historians or cultural scholars involved in the preservation and study of the photographic archives left behind by photojournalists employed until 1989 in the editorial offices of local weekly newspapers, covering mainly medium-sized cities and their adjacent regions, since the local so-called county press (in today's form of municipalities and...

We share photography. A conversation with the team of RPL&CAK's Photography Department
Julia Stachura: We are in the Provincial Public Library and Center for Cultural Animation in Poznan. At first glance, I would not associate this place with photography, and as it turns out, it plays a special role here. Tell us something about yourself, what is your artistic background and what paths led you to the photography department? Matthew Kiszka: I studied photography at the...

Youth portfolio - a space for new talent Artists
Amadeus Spruce Cottage
Long-term documentary projects are not an overly common choice among photographers today. There are several reasons for this. The media lives on fast news, an overwhelming number of photos are published on mass social media - where they also capture the attention of viewers for only a fraction of the time. Many modern photographers seduced by the technical ease of recording digital photographs succumb to mass trends, publishing easily digestible images online,...

Traces of ancient Oman by Jerzy Wierzbicki
Jerzy Wierzbicki's photographs of Oman in recent years both have something in common with and differ from his earlier works. In such series of works as "Gdańsk - Suburbia" (1995-2004) and "Post-Industrial Silesia" (2001-2006), he dealt with places that had suffered from the economic crisis. His attention was drawn to the devastated architecture and general temporariness of...

Descending into the depths of the body - photography by Larys Lubovitsky
"Do you see these humps, these hills on the left side? That's the pleuritis your cousin had in his fifteenth year. [...] Do you see these caverns here? That's where the venoms that intoxicate him come from. "1 Experiments in recording microscopic images date back to the early history of photography. Among the many inventors attempting to photograph the fascinating microstructures of the world (they include...

Apocalypse according to Christopher Miller
Polish photography chronically suffers from a lack of figures, if not legendary, then at least of great stature. One of the few shrouded in an aura of contemporary authority is Krzysztof Miller. Born in 1962, Miller, like many of his contemporaries, not only participated in the events of martial law, but also actively began to convulse the decline of communist Poland with photography. In the second half of the 1980s, he approached the circle of...

Systematic study of ceremonies
In the context of Arnold van Gennep's scholarly dissertation "Les rites de passages", which is, as the subtitle states, "A Systematic Study of Ceremonies", the choice of baptisms, communions, weddings and funerals as subjects of a photographic series under the title borrowed from the French anthropologist seems to be a most justifiable step. However, in Przemyslaw Pokrycki's extensive project, carried out since 2005, funeral rituals have become...

Father and son - towards "My Americas"
Writing that Wojciech Zawadzki was a great photographer is the same truism as writing that a great poet was, for example, a certain Slovakian. This everyone knows. Like any "seriousness," Wojciech Zawadzki continues to have an impact even after his death, which came for him in 2017. Less than five years later, or more precisely, from February 8 to March 18, 2022, in the extraordinary...
