Fotograf Magazine

Thanks to his photographs of Prague and the Czech Person (Český člověk) project, Jiří Poláček was among the most interesting artists of the 1970s and ‘80s. Following several years spent at the photo lab of the Czech News Agency (ČTK), he branched out as a freelance photographer. He was joined by his wife Blanka and son Jiří and together, over the following decades, they formed one of the most successful studios for gastronomic photography in Czechia.
