About the work
For the upcoming exhibition of the artist at Fotograf Gallery starting December 20, 2024, we are releasing this special limited edition. The photograph, part of the Rooms and Beds series, captures the raw intimacy characteristic of the photographer's world. 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
Libuše Jarcovjáková is currently one of the most influential and visible Czech photographers at home and abroad. 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. After 1985 she legally moved to West Berlin. After returning to the Czech Republic in 1992, she began teaching photography at a number of art colleges. Her original photography books Black Years (2017) and Evokativ (2019) are among the gems of their genre.
