abstract
The following annex presents a_selection of documentary photography by Karel Cudlín, born in Prague, quarter Žižkov, in 1960. He can also be considered as a_representative of Street Photography and a_photographer of Exotic East. Black and white pictures portray everyday and holiday moments in socialism, particularly in Prague of 1980s. They show for example workers in a_factory, Roma people of Žižkov, waiting for scarce goods, entertainment in Lucerna Palace, Communist celebrations, honour guard, the oath of enlistment into the basic military service. The selection from larger collection symbolically points at two perspectives on the fall of Communism (breaking events in Národní street and cutting through the barbed wires of Iron Curtain).
