The exhibition of Contemporary Slovak Photography is a part of a broadly conceived project called Slovakia Goes Ahead, the goal of which is to present Slovak culture in the European Union (for more information, go to href=http://www.foreign.gov.sk/slovakiagoesahead). The exhibition will introduce thirteen young photographers and photographing artists, who have been influencing the Slovak photo-scene significantly since late eighties until today. The presentation consists of black & white and colour, documentary and artistic photography. The spectrum of genres ranges from staged nudes, still-lives and portrayals through luminographs, and landscape assemblages all the way to digitally manipulated expressions and photographic installations. Thus, with its more than fifty works of art, the exhibition will provide a thorough image of the contemporary photography in Slovakia - by showing the specific, unique and typical features as well as the national and reflective ones of the universal questions of visual culture at the beginning of the 21st century.
