Stanislav Polonsky (1948–2002, Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine)
In the 1970s Polonsky participated in exhibitions in Lithuania, Russia, France, Spain, Italy, and Japan.
In the 1980s Polonsky suddenly gave up photography and destroyed his archives. In the 1990s, he lived in seclusion, and for many years his 1970s’ oeuvre was considered lost. It was only after his death in 2002 that about 200 of his prints were found in his apartment, and his first solo exhibition took place in 2008 in Dnipropetrovsk.
