Andrzej Wajda

Photos by Czeslaw Czaplinski
Cultural Event
Brussels
Belgium

Photo exhibition on Andrzej Wajda, recently deceased Polish film director. Wajda is considered one of Poland’s greatest directors, who over his long career received an honorary Oscar and Palme d’Or. Many of his films were inspired by turbulent wartime and communist history.

Although well known in Poland, Andrzej Wajda is not equally known in Europe and the exhibition would therefore aim at making its work and life known to a wider public. The photos were taken by Czeslaw Czaplinski, world-renowned artist photographer, journalist and documentary film maker.

The exhibition will run from 21 December 2016 to 31 January 2017 – closing event on 25 January 2017.
