Item Summary

Andrei Liankevich’s photographic project Belarusians in Poland documents members of the Belarusian community in the Podlachia region and Warsaw. The project brings together portraits of individuals from a range of social and professional backgrounds, including cultural, academic, and public figures, as well as families, educators, children, artists, and community activists. A central element of the project is a question posed by Liankevich to each participant: “What does Belarus mean to you?” The responses provide a framework for examining how members of the Belarusian community in Poland articulate their relationships to Belarus and their sense of cultural identity.
