Piotr Wołyński’s individual exhibition called Withdrawal consists of his latest photographic works as well as authorial quasi-photographic forms in which contemporary methods of registering and using images become the object of creative experience. In these realizations Wołyński, addressing various topics, examines the influence of photography and film on the ways in which we produce and arrange meanings and on what, consequently, we focus, in a way becoming one with our photographic or video cameras. In the 1990s Piotr Wołyński wrote in one of his texts: “Photography easily and interchangeably uses two kinds of space: the real space which is recorded, registered, and the space do the image. In the context of the world which is saturated with images and in which there is not enough space anymore in which to separate them, they become transparent.” However, the author is far from the metaphor of the “disappearing reality” which was fashionable at that time. Wołyński avoids the repetition of this proposition and of the process that is connected with it. Looking at his art – in which the question about the status of the image in the contemporary info-sphere undoubtedly occupies an important place – one can come to the conclusion that images dominate in the onset of a process that leads perhaps not to the disappearance, but to the withdrawal of reality. The exhibition, presented simultaneously in two galleries: the FF Gallery and the Imaginarium Gallery, among other works contains the following:
