Krakow Poland's PhotoMonth Event
This was my first time visiting Poland. It was an impromptu decision. I was going to Germany and Poland happens to be their neighbor. I love pirogies, wanted to visit Auschwitz and wanted to learn more about Poland than pirogies and Auschwitz. I arrived just in time for the final week of Krakow's PhotoMonth Event. Being one of Poland's oldest cities and a UNESCO world heritage site, Krakow is a dynamic setting to display contemporary artists photographs at various locations around the city. PhotoMonth is more than a month of photo exhibits; it's accompanied by workshops, outdoor events, concerts.
I decided to check out the exhibit at the Bunkier Sztuki Contemporary Art Gallery. I followed the bright red banner, announcing PhotoMonth, up to the art galleries crowded cafe to the entrance of the Bunkier Sztuki.
