Věra Nováková: Záznamy 1947-1950/1

A direct testimony of the artist Věra Nováková (1928-2024) about the formation of her own opinions and attitudes and the beginnings of her work and adult life during the dark years of the emerging communist totalitarianism in Bohemia. A distinctive text, outstanding for its original imagery and the tension between intimate passages and those concerning social issues and trans-personal questions. Juvenile notes that were not originally intended for publication and which the author decided to publish only at the end of her long life.
