An exhibition by Przemek Dzienis, one of the most interesting contemporary Polish photographers and filmmakers.

The first exhibition of Przemek Dzienis in Germany is a personal, intimate journey “a reflection on fleeting memories and records of memory”, explains the artist. He is primarily known to the public through his photographs and films. The exhibition features small-scale sculptures, photographs, films, and audio recordings, with the main medium this time remaining the object.

Good Grief premiered at the Fotofestival in Łódź, one of the most important events in the photography scene in Poland. The exhibition in Düsseldorf is a dream come true for the artist, as the Düsseldorf School of Photography has been an inspiration and reference point since his time as a student. The artist goes beyond the conventional understanding of photography and focuses on working with memory, both good and bad memories, accompanied by ambivalent emotions. Dzienis always approaches the images with distance; he stages and constructs more than he documents them. The only thing that remains of them is merely a memory.
