This exhibition explores the Kamionek district of Warsaw, a historically industrial area undergoing transformation. Through the interplay of Marcin Wicha's writings and Agnieszka Rayss' photography, the exhibition examines the past, present, and future of this neighborhood, featuring archival materials and contemporary art.
The exhibition 'Znaleźne. Przeszłość i przyszłość Kamionka' delves into the less-known Kamionek district on the right bank of Warsaw, a collaboration between writer Marcin Wicha and photographer Agnieszka Rayss. This exhibition, accompanied by a book, presents a mosaic of stories told through words and images. Visitors can expect to see archival objects and materials from the Museum of Warsaw's collection, contemporary photographs by Agnieszka Rayss, and even historical cobblestones from the former Veterinary Institute. The narrative explores Kamionek's rich industrial history, marked by diverse production from lenses to even 'bird's milk', and its ongoing transformation from a post-industrial zone to residential and service areas. The book 'Kamionek' complements the exhibition with short texts by Wicha and photographs by Rayss, offering a poetic essay on impermanence and a manifesto of attentiveness to urban details. Together, they create a unique narrative about the city, focusing on how one can observe its transformations. The exhibition guides visitors through the material reality of old Kamionek, the specters of its industrial era, and the latest chapter in its history, reflecting on the changing relationship between human life and nature, and the impact of gentrification on urban landscapes.
