Two established Polish photographers, two photographic series – Tadeusz Rolke (1929) and Krzysztof Wojciechowski (1947) shoot two different realities.

One – in the case of Wojciechowski – is a compound of both an anonymous American landscape with an abandoned car-wreck in it and on the other hand a derelict sandpit somewhere in Czechoslovakia with scattered children’s toys.

The second reality – in the case of Tadeusz Rolke – is more symbolic in nature. These are staged situations, made up of nudes, where the main inspiration for the author is the highly expressive poem by Beata Krupska, entitled „Meat-Dolls”.

Both authors realised their projects in the 70s and 80s and both used classic photographic film material.

This is a collision of two realities of different points of departure from the output of both photographers, who, through the years, have built their perceptions and feelings, not only as pertains to the outside world but also their own.
