pure photography
	This is just a working title, since who is to call or make anything perfect at all. Therefore, let's not take it as something obnoxious, but just as an arbitrary direction which, if taken literary, always ends up being utopian. Pure from what. People, it looks like?  The intention was to eliminate all of the contents that photography simply transmits, borrows from it's already expressive subjects (such are human faces), and to try to find expression by specifically photographic means. At first sight naive, this concept took us remarkably far, on a seemingly endless visual expedition. Every photographer sooner or later finds himself pondering on formally clean images - this thought was present already on the turn of the (19th) century. The difference is only one, and the most important: our conception of Pure Images is based on spontaneous and greatly unconscious emotional charge, which is their final goal as well. Such anti-conceptual approach may seem old-fashioned these days, but the independence of any outside movements of trends in art enables this photography to happen any place and any time, being the fact which this show hopefully somewhat proves.  These images should be taken with more naivety than skepticism, more intuition than thought. If you ever attempt to explain them, please just do not stop feeling while doing so.
