In the book, Christopher Jurecki quest for meaning in photography. Conversations about art the very end of the conversation with the author talked about the need for promotion of Polish photography festivals around the world. Often the idea of \u200b\u200bfestival revolves around inviting the guest. For example, in Houston's FotoFest are ongoing in China this year that the country will also be invited in May to Fotofestiwal to Lodz. I understand - the Olympics and still a certain exoticism, Although the Chinese art world has for years been strongly present. But Month of Photography in Krakow definitely surprised me. Indeed, the organizers thought that to participate in the festival to invite ... Poland. And strange as it sounds (in the end we invite ourselves), however this can be an excellent opportunity to ensure that the Polish Stock, together with the guests and directories found another path to cross our borders. Maybe because you have to wait for the results in the form of two major exhibitions - curated an exhibition of photographs by the year 2000 was Wojciech Prazmowski, and photography created after that date, Chris Miękus (including the author of now Poland). For now, though information on both exhibitions are more than modest, so will wait until May when the festival opens.
I must admit that I like the idea of \u200b\u200bpresenting our country, and this show has a chance (only provided reliable implementation) to become a significant event in recent years, especially since the Polish photography at other festivals are not dealt so far so significant, or still exploited best "classics", what the audience (not just foreign) gives the impression of continuous chasing a heel ... I also very much hope that the catalog of the festival will be even richer and fuller than last year's informative, and indeed quite nice. Finally, he gives life after years of exhibitions and becomes a source of information for various studies.
