Krátky popis
A drawn and handwritten work of non-fiction about the medium of
photography, the photography world, and how the invention of
photography influenced people’s thinking and behavior. It explores
topics such as the camera’s wormhole-like capabilities, why being
photographed causes stage fright, how the present is becoming a
stage for the future, analog vs. digital photography, the
relationship between the photographer and the photograph, and how
we are losing the possibility of gaining an authentic memory of a
moment from a photographic attempt to conserve it. “A funny and
delicate philosophical survival kit for a better understanding of
the influential, omnipresent shadow of photography.” —Joan
Fontcuberta “This work by Magda Stanová is a visual essay, not only
because she works with numerous photographic reproductions (famous
as well as completely private ones), but also and perhaps primarily
because of how she thoughtfully contrasts technical perfection with
simple drawings which eliminate everything accessory and show only
what is essential, though not in the way a chart does, since even
the drawings come alive here and lead their own cheerful life.”
—Miroslav Petříček Magda Stanová is a multi-disciplinary artist and
a senior lecturer at the Department of Theory and History of Art at
the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague.
