Event from the Photography and series – activities of Gallery 2B+L at the 10th Vintage Photo Festival 2024 in Bydgoszcz
Photography is a crucial element of social communication. In 1620, Francis Bacon recognized the invention of printing as one of the three groundbreaking discoveries in world history (alongside gunpowder and the compass). Józef Żuk Piwkowski claims that the invention of photography, and consequently film, television, and digital photography, is the fourth groundbreaking discovery of civilizational significance.
Gallery 2B+L plans to present four perspectives on photography and invite them to discussion.
