Political photography

The F blog is a nice place – too nice sometimes. Most of the images are beautiful, some of them incredibly beautiful. But sometimes it all seems too nice, too slick or even tame. A bit like the photography scene at large.

Where are all the photographers who want something, who want to use their work as a protest or to encourage change? Where are the images that have something to say, the ones with a straight message? Let us fill The F Blog with more political photography!

CWKS Legia is the Polish military sports' club and was founded in 1916. It experienced its zenith in the mid twentieth century. To this day, the club's members account for half the Olympic medals and a third of the world championships won by Poland. Today the club has only its history, name, logo and debts and its athletes prepare for Olympics in crumbling forts.

Artur Alan Willmann (born 1984) is a graduate of the European Academy of Photography in Warsaw. Currently, he is studying Photography at the Academy of the Fine Arts in Poznań. He has taken part in group exhibitions, made several solo shows, won a number of prizes in photographic contests and has had a huge amount of film developed. His main topics were black&white reportage photography, portraits in lithum developer and creative photography. Nowadays his attention is more drawn towards documentary photography in a wider sense. Artur Alan Willmann was already our invited guest.

By the way, does anyone out there know of some way to preserve pastry? I'd love to keep this one. /markus a

Jan Buse/ me thinks . . .



" - Do you see yonder cloud that is almost in the shape of a camel?

-By th' Mass, and 'tis like a camel indeed.

- Me thinks its like a weasel.

- It is backed like a weasel.

- Or like a whale.

- Very like a whale."
