Andrzej Maciejewski was born in 1959 in Poland. He studied at Warsaw College of Photography in Poland, Polish Society of Art Photographers School, and College of Photographic Arts in Ostrava in Czechoslovakia. In 1985 he moved to Canada. He worked as a commercial photographer in Toronto until mid-1990s. He then moved to the countryside in Eastern Ontario and devoted himself entirely to his art. He has published 5 books: Bread (1996), Toronto Parks (1997) After Notman (2003), Garden of Eden (2012) and Weather Report (2016). “After Notman” was a Canadian bestseller and has been widely discussed internationally.

His work has been exhibited at over 60 solo shows in Canada, USA, Poland, UK, Germany, Norway, Latvia, Finland and Uganda. His 2015 series “Weather Report”, involved a series of Camera Obscura images of the same place in different weather conditions, where his 2011 series “Garden of Eden” that has exhibited internationally, explored the form of still life, translating iconic paintings through photography. Maciejewski’s much-lauded 2013 series, “After Notman” involved exact rephotographs of 19^th Century Notman’s Montreal views, and his “VIP Portrait Gallery”, that was first shown at The Rooms (NL), explored traditional portraiture lighting and techniques using potatoes as the subject.

His works are found in many private and public collections including the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, the McCord Museum of Canadian History in Montreal, and the Preus Museum in Norway, and the Museum fur Kunst and Kulturgeschichte in Germany, among others. He teaches photography in Fleming College, Haliburton School of Art and Design in Canada.
