Two photographic series by Wojciech Wilczyk, winner of the 2015 Grand Press Photo Award. The “No Such Thing as an Innocent Eye” project (2006–2008) included more than 300 photos depicting present-day Polish buildings that were once synagogues, Batei Midrash, and prayer houses. The “Holy War” project (2009–2014), which was created in Kraków, Łódź and the Upper Silesia region, shows pieces of graffiti art created by people who consider themselves football fans. These works often include racist and anti-Semitic slogans and symbols. 6 essays, including two on the synagogue series. No itemized listing. |
