    RE: Photography | 2014 - 2016

The exhibition Re: Photography is a reflexion of photographic media which touches, inter alia, of simulation problems and tampering the photography. Lukačovičová rivets attention to illusory and in principal non-material nature of digitally produced picture surrounding us at every moment. She sharpens her and our view at the Photography itself and at its artistic context, too. She steps out the photography landscape at the same moment into the space of object and installation. She considers, resp. ties to consideration not only about destabilized photo position as a confident media but also about its mass, industrial diffusion and commercial photographic practice, of which it is and wants or does not want to be as an integral part. In her work there is a feeling of her personal favour into the history and theory of photography and her honour to its classic, analogue form. In time, when the smell of photo chambers is recompensed by sterility of digital ambiance, Lukačovičová´s exhibition offers minimalistic but fresh sonde into the nature of these phenomena. Výstava RE: Photography Lenky Lukačovičovej je praktickou časťou jej diplomovej práce, v ktorej teoretickej časti sa venovala konceptuálnym prístupom vo fotografii a presahom fotografie a iných médii. Pri koncipovaní výstavy teda vychádzala z tohto uvažovania, ale aj z vedomia, že „ať snímek ukazuje cokoli a jakkoli, je vždy neviditelný, neboť co vidím, není fotografický snímek. Referent lne k Fotografii. Kvůli tomuto zvláštnímu přelínání je velmi nesnadné zaostřit se na ni“ (Barthes, 2005, s. 14 – 15). Aby teda mohla zaostriť svoj i náš pohľad na Fotografiu ako takú i jej mimoumelecké kontexty, vykročila z plochy fotografie (v súlade s proklamovaným zameraním ateliéru) aj do priestorov objektu a inštalácie. Svoje uvažovanie zhmotnila v piatich prácach, ktoré majú ambíciu spolu komunikovať. (text: Ľ. Lehocký)
