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...
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....

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....
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...
