VASA Exhibtions is happy to bring to the internet the work of Polish artist Jan Skwarai, entitled "Portrait of the Past - The Aghori".

Jan Skwara’s project "Portrait of the Past. Aghori" is a tribute to vanishing traditions and communities that, though still existing, are slowly fading into history. In a world shaped by globalization, the photographer seeks out cultures that continue to preserve their ancient customs, rituals, and ways of life. His work is not only a visual archive but also an ethnographic testimony of these disappearing worlds.

To view the exhibition select here or the menu on the left.

VASA Exhibitions provides a viewing and research environment by archiving all of the exhibitions in their entirety. For example, the viewer may view a 2009 exhibition as it was presented and not just traces of its existence.

VASA Exhibitions (a program in VASA) includes images, videos and sound works.
