About the work

The photographer Libuše Jarcovjáková is famous for her distinctly visual, sparkling, straightforward style, which captures her life and the situations that take place simultaneously, independently of her own. She herself says that she feels as if they are happening only because of her. The filmstrips, or the digital cluster of quick shots, suggest an autopilot somewhere in there. In her travels, she explores the structures of unconscious processes. Often descriptively, with precision, in sequences, often randomly, sensationally, in quick snapshots. He returns to the same themes and explores them from several sides. He finds them in different forms, and in different circumstances.

Bio

In recent years, she has received attention thanks to a number of international exhibitions, for example in Arles, France, where she headlined the 50th edition of the famous Les Rencontres d'Arles, or, more recently, thanks to her participation in the exhibition Multiple Realities: Experimental Art in the Eastern Bloc, 1960s - 1980s at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, USA. Libuše Jarcovjáková (*1952) graduated from FAMU in Prague. For many years she photographed the Roma and Vietnamese community in Czechoslovakia and the famous Prague LGBTQ bar, T-Club.
