Exploring strategies for managing memory through image, as well as memory of art. President of the Imago Mundi Foundation

Łukasz Trzciński,1975. An artist and curator. His
interests oscillate between mechanisms governing the flow of
image, and its cultural functions. Initially a
documentarian, having spent years working with committed
photographic image, he has abandoned practical photography
for an analytic approach to the medium which now provides
him with a departure point for far-reaching reflection on
political, economic and cultural changes. His practices
focus chiefly on toying with the concept of authorship,
incorporating other people’s strategies of dealing with
image, including viewers’ perception, into his own work.
Image becomes a universal field of research into
stereotypization of notions and conditioning of perception.
He is currently exploring strategies for managing memory
through image, as well as memory of art.
