Baráth Gábor
He has been taking photos with anything he could get his hands on since his childhood, from digital cameras to large format or self-made pinhole cameras.
He teaches the wet plate collodion process, and I have written and translated several books on photography (including Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® – Digital Post-Processing for Photographers, and translations of Scott Kelby’s The Flash Book, The Photoshop Book for Digital Photographers, and The Digital Photography Book, Part 5: Photo Recipes).
His photographs have been showcased in numerous exhibitions across the country, including the FUGA Budapest Center for Architecture and the Szerbtemplom Gallery in Balassagyarmat. His series titled Plants and Glass (Üvegetáció) won the Grand Prize of the Hungarian Academy of Arts (MMA) at the 2022 Esztergom Photographic Biennial, while his work Entropy Text Messages (Entrópia SMS-ek) was awarded second prize at the 2023 Alföldi Photo Salon.
