The story is simple. We follow the protagonist, natural light, in three chapters, as it slowly unveils and deglamourizes. In the first chapter, protruding slants of light are unravelling miniscule details and creating mystical, dream-like images. We could be anywhere. Then, Lumen takes us into the tangible, but is entirely subordinate to geometry. Only in the third chapter is the exhausted body of a former maternity hospital illuminated, the walls stripped off to recognition. It is unforgiving, unmasking the misery, but bringing hope, light and warmth at the same time.

After the events of the late 1980s and 90s a photography department was established at the University of Bratislava, where the trend of individualism was broadly supported and a new creativity arose after decades of oppression. To document the wide creative and experimental variety of the young artists, this comprehensive title employs four different approaches: by art critic Lucia GavulovNB, photography theorist Michaela PaštekovNB, philosopher and aesthetic Jozef Kovalčik, and photographer and teacher Filip Vančo. They all brought their different ideas and individual views to this fascinating scene. Author: Peter Ančic, Juraj Anušev, Juraj Fifik, Barbora Haviarova, Jana Ilkova...
