The new temporary exhibition at the National Museum in Warsaw features works of a Moroccan-born French photographer – Bruno Barbey, showing the life of people and their communities witnessed by the artist during his travels through the five continents. Visitors can see photographs taken in countries such as Bangladesh, Brazil, China, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, Morocco, Mexico, Nigeria, Senegal, Vietnam, as well as Poland and Ukraine in the 1980s, right before gaining independence from the USSR. Barbey stood out from the other members of the legendary Magnum Photos group by rejecting monochromatism and – against the current – using color as a powerful tool in the reportage photography, which shows through the presented collection. The exhibition features original vintage prints from the actual time of the depicted events and is complemented by objects related to Bruno Barbey’s work – his camera destroyed during the war, press passes and multiple publications in prestigious magazines. The exhibition is open until March 3.
