Michal Kalhous – Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory

The exhibition *Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory* presents a series of photographs created over the recent period. It is an experimental tool of synthesis and a search for a path to fulfillment. At the same time, it is a purposeful, captivating exploration of suddenness and their relationships. *Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory* is once again an attempt at a dialogue between inner experience and a higher, transcendent order.

The Applied Photography studio at FUD UJEP – Photosynthesis
An outdoor exhibition in the refugium of the Botanic Garden of the Faculty of Science, Charles University presents projects by students of the Applied Photography Studio at FUD UJEP. The assignment was inspired by a conservation program for endangered plant species developed in cooperation with the Union of Botanical Gardens of the Czech Republic. Disappearing flora that can no longer reproduce independently in the wild and whose survival depends on human intervention became the subject of open-ended artistic interpretation.

Apple Harvest
Fotograf Zone Festival and Prague City Gallery invite visitors to take part in a shared apple harvest in the orchards of Troja Château. On selected festival days, visitors can come and pick apples from the local orchard and spend time in the gardens, which are usually perceived primarily as part of a cultural heritage site. In connection with this year’s festival theme, Wild Kin, we see the apple harvest as a small celebration of sharing, seasonality, and the mindful use of natural resources—and as a reminder that our relationships with places and landscapes are also formed through ordinary, everyday activities.
