Vernissage: Sunday, 31 Jul 2022, 3.00 p.m.
Petr Linhart is one of the most poetic songwriters in the Czech Republic. His immersive songs draw the listeners into their inner spaces and incite them to be actively engaged in their musical experience. All visions are thus lived and seen twice. Václav Müller, an organiser of Hradecký Slunovrat, captured these visions in his photos.

Folklore is a very familiar term for almost everyone in Moravian Slovakia. Nevertheless, or perhaps for this very reason, its meaning remains very vague and ambiguous.
