Description :
This book explores current Czech commercial photography. Despite the subject matter
(commercial and foremost fashion photography) being received by the public with
great interest and the media giving it considerable attention, there does not currently
exist any collection which introduces the elite of commercial photography and their
work. In the book, 16 artists are presented (Tomáš Bém, Tomáš Beran, Adam Holý,
Ondřej Kavan, Anna Kovačičová, Standa Merhout, Ondřej Pýcha, Jan Saudek, Tono Stano,
Jaroslav Šimandl, Dušan Šimánek, Petr Škvrně, Goran Tačevski, Jiří Turek, Adolf
Zika), each of whom have dramatically influenced photography over the past ten years.
Our book is about their work, with profiles of each individual artist consisting
of extensive interviews, several-page-long portfolios selected from the best, most
interesting, most attractive or most controversial executions, and a story about
one of these photos. The current state in the field of photography and in today‘s
media is also presented in an extensive reflection.
