20.7.2014: Hynek Alt

Hynek Alt

System's decomposition

7th of June - 19th of July 2014

Drdova gallery, Křižíkovského 10, Praha 3

Admission: free

Open: tue-fri 1 - 6 p.m., sat 2 - 6 p.m.

Exhibition named "System's decomposition in Drdova gallery represents new works of Czech photographer Hynek Alt whose long-term co-partner has been Slovenian artist Aleksandra Vajd. Alt's creative aproach to photography is focused on medium itself as well as on photographer's personality. Study of such approach is multilayer-like and shows complexity and delicacy in perception of photographic image. New exhibition follows his previous works which were all in line with the idea of possibility of perception of reality. Its ironic positioning can be well perceived from its name, nevertheless it carries conflict with the definite state of things. Exhibition talks about its existential experience, about our inability to see the world around us. The starting point of the exhibition is the topic of reproduction which thrives for capturing the actual thing most truly. However, it comes to its own deception, because Alt's photographs show pictures which do not exist.
