Fancy making a journey through the memories of earlier Photomonths in Krakow? Are you looking for a professional compendium of knowledge about British or Czech photography? Come to the festival office for previous Photomonth in Krakow catalogues from 2008, 2009 and 2010!

The literary Alias, presenting the fictional biographies of the artists, and its complement – The Guide to 9th Photomonth in Krakow Festival – don’t exhaust the list of books we’ve published for you this year. The Festival Office is presenting a set of exceptional photobooks by the ShowOFF Section winners: 25/25 by Bartłomiej Lurka, keikoku by Karol Kaczorowski, Don’t Mess with Texas by Tomasz Liboska and Michał Jędrzejowski, I forgot where it was by Yulka Wilam and Voice On by Piotr Zbierski. 

We’re about to begin the Photomonth’s penultimate weekend. Time is passing, so if you want to see the remaining exhibitions, the forthcoming days will provide the perfect opportunity. We encourage those who want to see as much as possible to read the map with all the locations holding the festival exhibitions and plan their photographic adventure.

One of the crucial differences between this year’s and previous editions of the Photomonth in Krakow Festival is its literary dimension – all the more important because without it the works we’re presenting wouldn’t exist. 

To meet the enhanced interest in fine art photography collecting, for the first time at Photomonth you can acquire images by the young Polish artists exhibited at this year's ShowOFF Section. Selected works for sale at a special price and in a limited edition of 25 copies are available from the festival office located at the Camelot Gallery at ul. św. Tomasza 17. 

Photomonth starts Sunday with a meeting with Jerzy Łapiński, and ends on a unique show of the world’s best photojournalism at Klub Fabryka!

For reasons independent of the organiser, Sunday’s scheduled (28.05.2011, 16:00) Meeting with Marek Grajewski and Rafał Drozdowski – authors of the book To photography – has been cancelled. We apologise for the change in plans. 

As with every previous festival Saturday, this one, too, is filled to the brim with photographic rarities. We have something for you on collecting, something on self-publishing, we’ll show you photos by Łukasz Gniadek, and attack with sensitivity in the company of the Warsaw City Rockers.

This Sunday, 29 May at 21.30, come along to Klub Fabryka at ul. Zabłocie 23 for the second of this year’s screenings of photo reportage as part of Slide Nite. This is the final cultural event in Klub Fabryka, which is closing down – you simply can’t miss it! 

We’re starting next weekend with a big surprise. Come and see some films from the first days of Photomonth in Krakow 2011!
