Tourist
Most Władysław Hasior's photographic notes were created during his travel across Poland and abroad - undoubtedly, the artist belongs to a group of most often presented ones during the times of the People’s Republic of Poland. Hasior made his first journey, crowned not yet with photographs but with a diary and sketchbook, on a motorcycle, just after graduation, to France, via Europe, in the late 50s and beginning of the 60s. The artist's walks around Vienna, Kraków or Zakopane - where he spend the majority of his life - were collected in a tourist set. Places with personal memories and tourist highlights. A "Notatnik" ["Notebook"], entitled "Sofia Marzena", seems to be the most interesting and most personal one - the only one in the set dedicated to a particular person, Marzanna Raińska, costume designer, met in Zakopane at film sets, who accompanied Hasior in his travel across Europe in the late 80s and beginning of the 90s.
