Vistula changes its course

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 00:00:00 +0000

Paradoxically, the Vistula divides and joins Janowiec and Kazimierz. Physically it divides the two towns, but at the same time its current allows to move quickly from one town to the other. On the way to the Baltic Sea it gathers and passes a lot of information. For a short time it changed its current to connect us with the north and convey the news from across the Bug River.
Cinema holds the reins at the two sides of Vistula and the Bug river reigns in Brama Gallery. It’s all thanks to Stanisław Baj, the professor at the Faculty of Painting in Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. He was born in the Bug area so it’s not a surprise that he has such a personal attitude to the river. In his works he presents different faces of his dear Bug. He considers Bug as nature’s most important circulation of life.
The exhibition will be held for the next two weeks

Twenty years have passed…

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 00:00:00 +0000

Is Poland a notion, image, name or a symbol? What happened in this country during the last 20 years? Seventeen students from the department of photography at the Film School in Łódź searched for the answer and created works that will be exhibited in the courtyard of the castle in Janowiec until August 9.

Create your world from the beginning

During one of the ‘Cinema Lessons’ we could hear the confessions of Bruno Baretto. Here’s what he said:

It’s a little bit like in a church… Becoming a director is in a way like becoming a priest because both professions can be defined with one word- devotion.

The Cinnamon Night

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 00:00:00 +0000

Jurij Andruchowicz and the Karbido Crew came to Kazimierz with a special show. It is a part of the concert entitled ‘SAMOGON-CINNAMON-ABSINTH’. The musicians have been cooperating for some time and prepared electronic and acoustic pictures for us. Their album is a mixture of different styles and techniques. It was recorded in many places. e.g. Drohobycz, Utrecht, Warsaw and Wrocław. To find out their unique sound, come to the patio of SARP 'Dom Architekta' tonight at 9:00 p.m. Peter Conradin Zumthor, an experimental drummer from Switzerland, will make a debut appearance in the Karbido Crew.
