RAHOVA
Jiří Novák, Jiří Borl, Jiří Sozanský
In July 1981, when Sozanský created his first work in Most, Jiří Putta came to take photographs at the place and the Film and TV School graduate Michal Baumbruck together with the cameraman František Brabec recorded on film there. The resulting film depicts not only the sculptures but also performances with actors which Sozanský staged for the film purposes. The film was called Evacuation and it was shown just few times during the 1980s at meetings of the artist's friends.
