descrizione

Stepping off the train, Cala encountered the other-worldly landscape for the first time and decided this is what he wanted to make of photographic record of.

Fascinated by the subject matter, he devoted himself to photographing the Silesian landscape between 1975-1992, which resulted in the series entitled Śląsk (Silesia).

"Cala become relatively well known in Poland but he is still little known in the West, despite the fact that his work bears comparison with masters such as Bill Brandt and Robert Frank."
- Bill Kouwenhoven, British Journal of Photography, 2007
