Paweł PIERŚCIŃSKI (1938 Kielce - 2017 Kielce)

Untitled from the Abstract Photography series

1957
luxography, gelatin silver print, 29 x 38.6 cm,
signed, dated, described and artist`s stamp on the reverse,
the only existing print,
vintage print

The luxograph, made without the use of a photographic camera, shows drops of liquid spilled over a glass plate in the enlarger, copied with side lighting. The uniqueness of the technique lies in the fact that the enlarger was `adjusted` in such a way as to bring out the drops with lights and shadows which, as Pierściński himself observes, "created a unique spatial archipelago of islands".
Exhibitions: 1st Abstract Photography Exhibition, Wrocław (1959), London and Paris; two retrospective shows in Kielce (1981, 1995).
