Exhibition of large format prints of Janusz Kobylinski's portraits of the inhabitants of his village hangs in a field
My good friend Janusz Kobylinski, a photographer’s photographer, has just finished a very cool little documentary project, shooting environmental portraits of people who live in the village where he and his good lady have a country house. The village is not far from the Polish town of Kazimierz.
The project took a few months to come together and last Sunday it was time to unveil the photographs – and what a fine unveiling it was, too. The large-sized prints had been sandwiched back to back in rough-hewn boards straight from the local timber mill, and put up on round fence posts in a scrap of local field, especially mowed for the occasion. Now that is some seriously cool Rustic Style, you have to agree. Some of the photographs are available for viewing in a small web gallery here (in Polish) and the whole set will be exhibited in a ‘proper’ gallery in the autumn.
