The exhibition of photographs by Lubomír Kotek is expressively called "Here is Husák-ville", referring to the last communist president Gustav Husák. It takes twenty years of democracy to see the unique greyness that surrounded people living under communism. In their uneventful life they forgot to look around and see some extraordinary scenes. Lubomír Kotek didn't. He went out there and took pictures of everything that was there - be it ever-present tin fences that covered never ending construction sites, run-down walls of historic buildings or old Škoda cars. The exhibition takes place in Louvre Gallery until 3. 1. 2010.
