The exhibition consists of Warsaw photographs from the second half of the 1940s, taken by photojournalists from various photographic agencies operating right after the war, before the establishment of the Central Photographic Agency in 1951, including Jerzy Baranowski, Stanisław Dąbrowiecki, Władysław Forbert, Wojciech Kondracki, Tadeusz Kubiak, Bolesław Miedza, Lech Pieńkowski, Karol Szczeciński, Jan Tymiński, Stanisław Urbanowicz, and Zdzisław Wdowiński. The exhibition is accompanied by the premiere of the second edition of the album "Warsaw Reborn. Reportage Photography 1945-1949." 📅 The exhibition opening and book premiere will take place on September 25 at 6:00 PM at DSH. The event will feature a surprise concert. Free admission! The exhibition is presented as part of the DSH project "We Are Building a New Home," organized within the framework of the celebrations prepared by the City of Warsaw for the 80th anniversary of the beginning of Warsaw's reconstruction.
