‘iwan baan: prague diary’ exhibition unfolds as an urban pilgrimage

Elaborating on the content of the photographs, Ondřej Boháč, Director of the Prague Institute of Planning and Development
, writes: ‘Iwan Baan does not limit his photographs of Prague merely to notorious and sought-after locations but focuses also on the neglected ones. He also maps important brownfields such as the Žižkov Freight Station or the Vltavská metro area and captures them in their raw state. Baan focuses on buildings near the river, industrial buildings, transport infrastructure, islands, the landscape, and the busy and quiet life around it. From the contradictions he creates a mosaic which he has used to put together an urban portrait that visitors can see at the exhibition in CAMP.‘
