"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....
Marta Pogorzala's visual experience
Photography has always been a tool that allowed man to explore. Over time, as optical devices, including cameras, became more and more advanced, and their possibilities for discovery grew, not only for scientists and researchers, but also for artists who manifested the natural human qualities of curiosity and observation.

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....
Weronika Jedrzejczak, Inspiration - 100,000 km - Exhalation
Looking at the photographs of Weronika Jedrzejczak, we notice in the first place the coherence of the series, we can see that all the photographs belong to the same series, that they are not a collection of random and not much in common photos, which were given only the same signboard in the form of a title.

Before Putin...
Virtual characters algorithm. Sebulec on Sara Kosmos
Magdalena Zolędź: Before we move on to Sara Kosmos, I would like to know something about you. How would you describe the theoretical background of your work and how is it related to your artistic practice? Sebulec: I studied animation at the Academy of Fine Arts' graphics department, while in the 3D field I am self-taught. On my own, I learned the techniques used by game character creators and...
Michael Konrad - a self-portrait of thought
If I had to answer the question of what photography is, I would answer that creating an image, the basis of which is independent thinking. If someone were to ask me what life is about, I would answer similarly - that life is about independent thinking every minute of it. For several years I have been making self-portraits, my figure has become an indispensable part of my photographs, using...
