Jiri Makovec: Tales from

the Island – Exhibition
June 12 – July 31

Chelsea Market, 75 Ninth Ave (btw 15 and 16 St), NYC

In Jiri Makovec's fifth exhibition at the Chelsea market,

Tales from the island continues with the photographers

exploration of New York as a personal urban experience.

Within the city’s rigid grid, moments of mystery and terror

unveil, and are captured as a series of encounters and events.

Whether the viewer is facing truth or fiction, this body of

work shows the photographers relationship to the city,

that is also known as "the arena for the terminal stage

of western civilization" (R. Koolhaas).

Organized in cooperation with Fragment Museum
