» About PhotoPoland is a project that aims to promote modern Polish photography abroad. It has been developed
by Adam Mickiewicz Institute and Foundation of Visual Education, the main organizer of Fotofestiwal, in
cooperation with an international group of curators. Its first edition was organized in May 2007. Representatives
of various festivals and institutions dealing with photography from Spain, Brazil, USA, Mexico, Russia,
Greece, Israel and Great Britain met during the International Festival of Photography in Lodz. They spent
two days analyzing portfolios and talking to 15 Polish artists. The outcome of these meetings is a series of
exhibitions of 7 of these photographers – Nicolas Grospierre, Przemysław Pokrycki, Konrad Pustoła, Szymon
Rogiński, Asia Zastróżna, and the duo of Weronika Łodzińska and Andrzej Kramarz – presented in galleries and
exhibitions all around the world. |
