WATCH YOUR THOUGHTS. MARCIN GIŻYCKI IN MEMORIAM

Thursday, 28. 9. 2023 at 19.30 / OBRAT

Marcin Giżycki was not only a prominent film and art historian, critic, and filmmaker, an academic lecturer in Poland and the US, and an Artistic Director of the ANIMATOR Festival, but also - which only a few realize - a photographer and creator of funny collages and drawings. At the exhibition, we will present Marcin's collages and selected stills from his films, as well as the films themselves.

We are wholeheartedly grateful to Agnieszka Taborska for making this exhibition possible.

Curated and introduced by Piotr Kardas.
