2014 Memory Lab venue in Bratislava
24th MONTH OF PHOTOGRAPHY BRATISLAVA
The Memory Lab exhibition is hosted at the Institut français and is curated by Koklesova Bohunka and Michaela Bosakova.
Dramaturgy in the 24th year of the Month of Photography stands on four pillars. The first pillar consists of exhibitions that thematise photography and theatre. The group of exhibitions includes one that is exceptional, Theatrical World 1839–1939, and also the unique original prints by Rudolf Koppitz, an Austrian author of the early 20th century. A renewed interest in inscenation can be observed in the retrospective work by Milota Havránková who inspired the Slovak New Wave. We present a detailed reconstruction of the work of this group at the House of Arts / Kunsthalle.
