New Wave Photography 2012 @ The Crypt Gallery

January 16th, 2012 by fstop

Emerging talent from Central and Eastern Europe is due to arrive at a dynamic, exhibition ‘New Wave Photography’, opening at the Crypt Gallery, London from 18th- 26th February 2012.

The atmospheric catacombs of St.Pancras Church, Euston, venue of the gallery, hosts 11 young photographers from 6 countries: Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania and the Czech Republic.

The exhibition demonstrates a high-level of technical ability as well as bold experimentation. Slovakian photographer, Peter Cibak introduces computer- generated figures into digital photographs in his series Zygota. Monika Stacho’s strikingly personal images demonstrate digital layering to create illusionary compositions of her childhood memories. Polish photographer, Katarzyna Niedzwiecka combines digital photomontage with gum print, a rare 19th century technique to create her surreal series The Animal Called Human.

New Wave Photography challenges the perception of Eastern European photography by displaying vibrant, experimental work that celebrates the youthfulness of the artists themselves.

All photographs shown at the Crypt Gallery are available to purchase during the exhibition. Entrance to the exhibition is free.
