Lukáš Jasanský, Martin Polák
Lukáš Jasanský and Martin Polák are among the best known and respected Czech photographers. They express themselves through extensive series of photographs that until now have only been documented separately, in small publications; a larger overview and assessment of their work has thus been missing.The photographic duo have, since the late 1980s, been documenting in detail the changes occurring in both urban landscapes (for example the Pragensia series) as well as rural ones (the Czech Landscape and Czech Villages series) which mark an evolution from the 'Communist past' to the 'Capitalist future'.This publication is the first book to comprehensively document the history of all the series of this photographer-duo. Published within the context of the series Tranzit, edited by Vít Havránek, focusing on Central and Eastern European artists.English and Czech text.
Edi Hila
"Hila was born in Shkodra in 1944, and lives and works in Tirana. During his studies in the 1960s he experimented timidly with deformation. In 1972 he painted "Planting of Trees", a pleasant picture rendered slightly unreal through the use of color, which because of its departure from the approved socialist realist doctrine, soon became a pretext for ordering him to work in a poultry processing plant, where his main task was hauling sacks. In the evenings he secretly created a series of drawings documenting the life of the workers (the "Poultry" series, 1975-76), harrowing in their raw realism.

MM Robert Kusmirowski
Tiré du site Internet de JRP/Ringier : "The Polish artist Robert Kusmirowski (*1973) is known for his intense stagings of places and spaces of past times. Using simple materials, the artist creates meticulous simulations which appear to the eye like perfect replicas of places and objects. These spaces of the past, so carefully transferred and combined with the present, make his installations appear to have broken through the principle of irreversible time. His works are pervaded by a nostalgia which, however, does not fall victim to melancholy or romanticism. No attempt is made to re-establish the past, but rather to reflect upon an individual and collective relationship to time and history. The publication is a continuation of his spatially comprehensive installation, which he produced for his solo exhibition at the migros museum für gegenwartskunst in 2006, a mysterious, old training camp recalling the Soviet technology dream during the Cold War. The book is in-between the improbable report by an atomic energy commission and a technical manual with its folding plans and instructions."
