Have you succeeded in photographing the UFO, the ghost of a dead person or an unidentified luminescence defying a logical explanation? Share your photographs with us! We do not laugh at paranormal phenomena – and you can win the subscription of Fotograf Magazine, the current issue titled “Seeing is Believing”, tickets to the séance with Boris Ondreička (“Manifestation of the Spirit”) or Mutating Medium – a book on the trends in contemporary Czech photography. The best pictures will be screened at the opening ceremony of Fotograf Festival on October 3, 2014, at the National Gallery ́s venue of Veletržní Palace, Prague. The winners will be selected by the editorial board of Fotograf Magazine.

 

The fourth edition of Fotograf Festival will take place in Prague in October this year and will revolve around the theme of “SEEING IS BELIEVING”. Thus in 2014, the festival will focus on the imaginary space through the looking glass, working with phenomena on the very limits of scientific comprehension. Photography here plays the role of medium, document, eyewitness or even evidence of paranormal phenomena, spiritism, decadence, mental photography, and the like. The subject is also open to motifs of mirror reflection, doubling, illusion or the surreal. Our festival program will combine the three above cited approaches, hoping to inspire reflection on the nature of the relation of the technical image to reality and the authenticity of the medium of photography.
