Abstract
Artykuł jest próbą spojrzenia na praktyki artystyczne Christiana Boltanskiego. Szczególną
uwagę poświęcono czterem jego wystawom, jakie odbyły się w warszawskiej Galerii Foksal.
Pokazują one, że francuski artysta sięga po medium fotografii i stosuje je w swojej sztuce
w specyficznym ujęciu nadanym przez André Bazina. Oznacza to, iż fotografia jest dla Botlanskiego
narzędziem mumifikacji rzeczywistości, która staje się zarazem i relikwią, i pamięcią.
This article is an attempt to look at the artistic practices of Christian Boltanski. Particular emphasis is placed on four of his exhibitions which were held at the Foksal Gallery in Warsaw. They show that the French artist not only uses the medium of photography in his art, but uses it in the specific approach as designated by André Bazin. This means that, for Boltanski, photography is a tool for the mummification of reality, which then becomes both a relic and a memory.
