Mario Sommer
Web design and visual identity for my father, Juraj Bartoš (b. 1944), one of Slovakia’s most significant documentary photographers. Photographing since the late 1950s, his work spans over six decades of social and cultural transformation. The website functions as a living digital archive of his expansive body of work, both historic and ongoing.
Bartoš’s photography is rooted in observation rather than staging. His images form a kind of visual anthropology, documenting everyday life across (Czecho-)Slovakia with quiet precision. What appears ordinary in the present becomes, through his lens, a record for future generations.
