Welcome to a Photomonth in Krakow accompanying event. The opening of the photography exhibition “PortfolioNOW” will take place on Thursday, May 12 at. 19:00 at ul. GeneraĹa ZajÄ
czka 8 in Warsaw. You’ll be able to see photos by a photographer who does not want to see the public at his vernissage.
Another Photographer is the pseudonym behind which a young photographer is hidden. Someone who, after many years abroad, where he has presented his work at spontaneous exhibitions in unexpected locations – including his friends’ apartment in Rome and a farm in Ohio – has returned to Poland. For the first time, he has decided to exhibit his work in the country of his forefathers. This time, he has prepared an exhibition which is simultaneously his portfolio. For his exhibition space, he has chosen an empty butcher's shop in Ĺťoliborz in the building where his grandparents lived.
The opening of the “PortfolioNOW” exhibition will take place on the day prior to the inauguration of Photomonth in Krakow. During the vernissage, musicians from the Lado ABC label will play, and curator Gil Mac will briefly outline a profile of the artist, of whom so far we know just this:
He was not born in Buenos Aires. He has not raised moose in Alaska. He did not run away from home. His mother did not commit suicide. He did not dwell in a squat in Amsterdam. He does not ride a bike. He is not interested in the arts. He is not a vegetarian. He does not play the guitar and does not want to play the ukulele. He has no difficulty defining his own sexual identity. He does not want to be just another photographer. He does not want you to come to his exhibition.
