Photo walks are walking tours around unique places in Łódź. They have been organised for several years as events accompanying Fotofestiwal. Each photo walk is led by a guide who speaks about the visited places and a photographer who provides advice on how to take a great photo and what is worth your attention when taking photos of urban space.
During the 12th International Festival of Photography you may take part in the project called Photowalking with Dalkia. Time of Energy – CHP Plant 2. This time we will take you to a place that is quite unique and usually inaccessible to most people: the Combined Heat and Power Plant No. 2 in 26 Wróblewskiego Street. The participants will be able to see the plant’s extraordinary industrial architecture. The constriction of the plant started in 1955. Today the plant provides heat and hot water to inhabitants of the Retkinia and Karolew housing developments and businesses located in that area. The photo walks will be one of very few and last opportunities to see the CHP Plant 2 because it is scheduled to be decommissioned in 2015. So, the project is quite unusual.
