Fantasia is a traditional Moroccan equestrian performance inspired by the historical wartime attacks of desert knights and Berber tribes. Riders, dressed in period attire form a line along a straight path and gallop their horses at a constant speed. As a finale, the riders fire old-school black powder rifles into the air in unison. The most difficult task of the performance is to synchronize the speed of the horses during their acceleration over a short distance, and is compounded at the finale as the blasts from the rifles are supposed to sound like a single shot.
Called “Serba”, each region of Morocco has at least one fantasia group. Performances, like this one in Mohammedia during summer 2004, are usually held during local seasonal, cultural or religious festivals.

Wherever you look in the constitutional monarchy of Morocco, you can be sure to see the faces of father and son kings, Hassan II and Mohammed VI, taking part in the day-to-day lives of their subjects as their portraits are ubiquitously visible in every place imaginable from shop walls to billboards.
People choose the appropriate portrait of their king depending on their own taste and relevancy of its placement – the king with his son, the king playing pool, the king in full army dress, etc.
Official portraits in frames can be seen complimented by ordinary photos from magazines and newspapers.
... of the Prague Streets
A photo book commissioned by Mladá Fronta Publishing house (Prague, Czech Republic, 2008)
Women. We talk and write about them all the time throughout all forms of specialized and tailor-made media. In the art world, we deeply explore the problems faced by female artists and the use of feminine imagery. We often forget, however, about women in architecture and sculpture: aren’t there hundreds (if not thousands) of examples in Prague? The Book, “Female Patrons of Prague’s Streets” follows the history of the use of the feminine form in Prague’s architecture from medieval times to the present day, from buildings that are internationally famous to those that are famously obscure.
