Abbe’s UNDERGROUND (A Family Album)

The artist Abbé Libansky photographed everyday life in the Czech underground between 1970 and 1982. The project is part of Abbé Libansky’s private archives and will be published in the book Underground in May 2004 along with texts by Václav Havel and others. It is one of the few documentations of the period covering not only the music and art scenes but everyday life as well.

Petrified Psychograms

Anyone who has ever travelled in the Balkans, and in particular in Albania, is familiar with the following typical picture of the landscape: the unfinished carcasses and windowless shells of buildings lying in the open fields as if they had fallen from the sky, without any relation to the topography. Anonymous architecture that seems to proclaim, almost defiantly, a new beginning after the end of the country’s Communist dictatorship.
