Fotograf Zone as you know it is changing in 2027
In 2027, there will be no Fotograf Festival, and for the first time in 25 years, no print issue of Fotograf Magazine will be published. We are currently deciding on the future of Fotograf Zone Gallery. We do not yet know exactly what the organization will look like from next year onward, and we do not want to pretend otherwise.

Intimate and Raw – Afterglow Revisits the Work of Adam Holý
On Thursday, 3 September, Fotograf Zone will open Afterglow, an exhibition dedicated to the remarkable photographic practice of Adam Holý. Staged ten years after the artist’s death, the exhibition reflects on his lasting impact on Czech photography while repositioning his work within a contemporary context. Bringing together intimate portraits, spontaneous snapshots taken from a moving car, and lesser-known landscape montages, the exhibition offers a compelling encounter with a complex body of work whose images continue to surprise, unsettle, and fascinate.
