Et Prague alors…
jaká byla Pařiž?
Paying homage to Jan Ságl’s book A co Pařiž, jaká byla?
– a collection of photographs he took while on assignment
with the Czechoslovak Press Agency in Paris in the 1980s –
this series explores echoes of one city in the other. Once separated
by the iron curtain, both cities are located on a similar latitude
(Prague: 50° 5’ N, Paris: 48° 51’ N), thriving on the shared aura
of another time. These photographs however
pose memories of the here and now.
