Mark�ta Luska�ov�

Mark�ta Luska�ov� (* 1944) is one of the world's most sensitive observors of the human condition. Her series Pilgrims and Sumiac, Slovakia capture the vanishing world of the rural pilgrim and the mountain people of Slovakia. Later cycles, shot in Great Britain, focus on the world of threatened minorities and children. Her photographs reveal the souls of people not simply their appearances as one is led to expect by the fashion-crazed appetites of contemporary life. Her work is not only penetrating but modest, even humble in the way it permits the viewer to share in the joys and griefs of being human. Luska�ov� is an artist of great magnitude.
