Exhibiting
in Poland for the first time at the Kasia Michalski Gallery, Jurek
Wajdowicz presents "Solace / Wyciszenie" a collection of large scale,
abstract photographs which bring to mind a vision of an urban
environment seen from a distance; dazzling with light and color,
vibrating in constant, yet imperceptible movement. These contemplative,
minimalist images float somewhere on the edge of abstraction and reality
inspiring an atmosphere of tranquility, inviting the viewer to meditate
and question what they are looking at. Wajdowicz's fine art
photographic book "Liminal Spaces_Fotografie 75" was published in Fall
2013 by Lars Müller Publishers.
