11.5. - 13.6.2021 Siberia is shrouded in mystery as is the origin of its name. It is a vast territory where political prisoners and scientists, who receive Nobel Prizes for their discoveries, live in extreme conditions. It is an expanse of land where turbulent history meets the breathtaking beauty of nature, fragility of civilization, and people who steer clear of the ones and zeros of the online world. Martin Wágner, a documentary photographer who does not measure the stages in his life with calendars or schools, but with journeys, has visited Siberia countless times and taken more than forty thousand photos

Exhibition "400 ASA: Simply documentary" in GHMP (House of Photography) is since 13.3. until further notice closed due to COVID-19 epidemic. This new association of Czech photographers opted for the name 400 ASA in reference to the kind of film that is highly sensitive to light exposure. The exhibition 400 ASA: Documentary Photography examines the lives of various social groups, taking a closer look on the habitats they create for themselves. The exhibits are complemented by projections of other works by each of the participating photographers, selected from just one segment of their concurrent work programs. Karel Cudlín (*1960), Jan Dobrovský (*1960), Alžběta Jungrová (*1978), Antonín Kratochvíl (*1947), Jan Mihaliček (*1965) and Martin Wágner (*1980)
