‘The Crooked World of Arcadius Mauritz’ photo exhibition by Arcadius Mauritz
3rd April 2015 at 7pm
Arcadius Mauritz is a dedicated portraitist of women, successfully mixing creation with observation. The exhibition at Meow Studios will give you the opportunity to experience 20 black and white portraits created by Arcadius over the last 3 years. Heroines of his photographs are celebrities such as models and actresses amongst many other extraordinary women. Since each woman is different and exceptional, with every single photograph Arcadius portrays each one character in a contrasting way, providing us a mixture of simplicity, expressiveness and sublime, singular beauty.

‘Adventure Pictures’ photo exhibition by Marcin Jamkowski
20 February 2015 at 7pm
The exhibition of Marcin Jamkowski`s ‘Adventure Pictures’ transports viewers to the places rarely visited by gallery goers and only occasionally penetrated by photographers. This is a journey into the deep sea abyss, to the highest peaks, to the deepest canyons. It is a visual trip to the world which is unknown to the wider public as well as it is a detailed exploration – not only of the distant geographical regions but also the unvisited corners of one`s mind.
The pictures were taken during scientific and adventure expeditions to five continents.
Marcin Jamkowski is a travel photographer and former editor-in-chief of National Geographic Magazine

‘Reborn babies’ exhibition on Play Poland Film Festival
10th October 2014 at 7pm
The Reborn babies exhibition showcasing works of six Polish artists will be one of the events accompanying this year’s edition of the Play Poland Film Festival. It starts on October 9th and will be open along with Tomasz Płonka’s exhibition in Meow Photography Studios in Edinburgh until October 16th.
Marcelo Zamenhoff, Seweryn Swacha, Anka Leśniak, Michał Jankowski, Arti Grabowski and Diana Ronnberg are young and resolute individuals with fresh approach to visual arts and new media art. They express themselves using both traditional forms such as paintings as well photography, video and performance. Modern means of expression accurately reflect contemporary fears associated with human entrapped in new culture models. Without attempts to capture their real life examples, multiculturalism, culture diversity, cross border, self-oriented, creolisation and other phenomena that have been studied for many decades would only remain theoretical concepts. This exactly what drives the group of young Polish artists in their Reborn babies project. They relate to the issue of equality in all possible ways including racial, linguistic or religious belief.
