Zieliński, Jerzy

(1950-)

   A 1974 graduate of the Łódź Film School, cinematographer Zieliński received praise in the late 1970s for his work on several critically acclaimed short films, including Zbigniew Rybczynski's New Book (1975) and Wojciech Wiszniews-ki's The First Textbook (1976) and Foreman on the Farm (1978). His stylish photography of Filip Bajon's first films, Aria for an Athlete (1979), Inspection at the Scene of the Crime, 1901 (1981), and Daimler-Benz Limousine (1981), was commended by critics. Zieliński also photographed Wojciech Marczewski's The Housekeeper (1979), Shivers (1981), and Escape from the "Freedom" Cinema (1990). He began working abroad in the 1980s in Great Britain and the United States, photographing Agnieszka Holland's Washington Square (1997) and The Third Miracle (1999), among other films.
