Brno, Dec 6 (BD) – Last year, Karel Otto Hrubý would have celebrated his 100th birthday. K. O. Hrubý was a photographer, teacher, curator, and author of literature about photography.

His legacy will be commemorated in a retrospective exhibition mapping his photographic work.

The exhibition will feature live photography, portraits, landscapes, snapshots from everyday life, photographs of the metamorphosing city, and theatre and staged photography.
