To Sang Fotostudio/”To Sang Fotostudio”: Coda – Alicja – Sense
Abstract
A sequel or coda of the article devoted to the film To Sang Fotostudio, which was published in the hundredth, jubilee edition of the “Kwartalnik Filmowy”. The author decided to visit the place where Johan van der Keuken’s documentary was made. The purpose of the expedition was not so much to conduct an investigation, but an experiment - the visit was to be an opportunity to open up oneself to experience, that is by assumption incomplete and closed within a few days. The text is not so much a complement to the interpretation contained in the previous article, but rather an attempt to reflect on the cognitive value of individual experience in the context of recognizing the possible meanings of a film work. Andrzej Pitrus takes an extremely subjective attitude, but suggests that such readings may make sense for the reader. In the expedition, the close friend of the author Artur Piskorz and the Love of his Life - Alicja Helman also took part. Their presence was very significant for the success of the undertaking.
