MACIEJ DAKOWICZ: "CARDIFF"

























http://www.maciejdakowicz.com/filter/CardiffAfterDark/photos

St Mary street is one of the main streets of central Cardiff, the capital city of Wales. A city as any other in the UK. 
The street is one of the main hubs of clubs and pubs of the city. Sooner or later most party goers end up on that street. 
The street is closed for cars on Saturday nights and becomes the main scene of the city night life, fuelled by alcohol 
and emotions. Everything takes place in public - from drinking, fighting, kissing to crying and sleeping.(...)

An album published by Thames & Hudson is due out in autmn 2012.

IGOR OMULECKI: "JP2"









































http://www.omulecki.com/index.php?/jp2/


(...) 
A virtual journey across 
different locations related to the cult of John Paul II,
a documentation 
of the story, 
 
objects, and artifacts.
(...) 
 The papal motifs have 
turned into a strange guidebook 
to the meanders of 
Polishness, which takes one 
on a trip starting from the rural, somewhat boggy 
idyll, 
 and then through
the private collections of papal gadgets (collected more for the 
 fun of it 
than out of sheer respect), all the way to the Foundation of John Paul II 
 
in Rome (...).

MARIUSZ FORECKI: "I LOVE POLAND"




























http://www.forecki.pl/

I have been photographing Poland from the mid-80s. The recorded events and situations are often very personal.  
They have no record of high politics or spectacular events. They seem to be of little importance, from a global point of view.   
But from the standpoint of the heroes of these photographs, they most fully describe their daily lives. Gathered in one place 
they give a view of the changes which we witnessed, or maybe just me ...(...)

CECYLIA MALIK: "365 TREES"














































http://www.cecyliamalik.pl/drzewa/d-foto.html

The young  artist from Cracow, starting from 25th September 2009, climbed one tree a day for the whole 
following year. It is the origin of the cycle 365 Trees, inspired by Italo Calvino’s novel "The Baron in the Trees" 
from 1957. "The project lasted exactly a year, i.e. 365 days, when I climbed up 365 trees, a different tree
each time. Not only is it my diary, but also my private rebellion, a small protest", writes the artist
in the preface to her album "Cecylia Malik: 365 Trees".

AGNIESZKA RAYSS: "AMERICAN DREAM"




























http://agnieszkarayss.com/gallery/american-dream-0

A couple of years ago I started shooting a new phenomena in Polish popular culture - the bombastic castings for TV shows,
cheerleaders performing at sport stadiums, open and mass auditions for top models. The changes were on the way.(...)
