Pavel Baňka
‘INFINITY / BEYOND INFINITY’
Russian Tearoom Gallery, Paris
15.05.2013 - 30.07.2013
RTR Gallery is pleased to present the personal exhibition of Czech photograph Pavel Banka, entitled ‘INFINITY/BEYOND INIFINTY’: 20 images in black and white from the same series, that have been taken on the North West Pacific coast of the United States between 1997 and 1999. 3 new images, that have never been shown before, are also part of the exhibition, and have been composed on the same basis as the other ones with the help of digital manipulations.
The ” INFINITY/BEYOND INIFINTY” series made at a precise period and at a very specific location, gives to the viewer the feeling of being out of space and time. “I’m not looking for a crucial moment, I multiply times. I try to achieve an average - a totality of perceptions, not objective, but subjective ” Pavel Baňka attempts to bring to the surface dream and reality, the real and the imaginary, the physical and the virtual.
