Contemporary Slovak photography

The photographs are taken from September 2007 to June 2008. During this time I travelled back and forward from New York to South Dakota where the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation is. The Pine Ridge Indian Reservation is unlike any other place in the world. Here the past and the present merge like two powerful rivers meeting, generating raging rapids and deep undercurrents. A people living in dire poverty under conditions equivalent to occupation have embraced the past, embraced once lost traditions, in order to struggle against the oppression of their present lives.

I have been given an interesting task.I have to write editorial to the exhibition of five Prague FAMU graduates, who are at the moment on maternity leave or they are just giving birth to their babies…

The exhibition entitled OUTER SPACE is based on several author´s work, which are united by studying and passing out photography at FAMU, also works with single theme using different author´s approaches.

Exhibition devoted to the 20th Velvet Revolution Anniversary.
