The exhibition presents several exploratory probes into the world of advertising for electrical appliances and the way male and female roles are portrayed in advertising and promotional photography. Has work carried out with electricity replaced the work of women? Or are they still stuck behind the blender whilst men develop their imagination and political engagement in front of the screen?

Has electric energy had an impact on women’s emancipation? Has work carried out with electricity replaced the work of women? Or are they still stuck behind the blender whilst men develop their imagination and political engagement in front of the screen? The exhibition presents several exploratory probes into the world of advertising for electrical appliances and the way male and female roles are portrayed in advertising and promotional photography.

The Fotograf Festival is organised by the Fotograf 07 z.s., and held under the auspices of the Mayor of Prague, and with the support of the City Council of Prague (400 000 CZK), the Czech Ministry of Culture and State Fund of Culture.
