It will not be a workshop on traditional portrait. Antonin will show how, even in the difficult art of portraiture, is possible to show one personal and unique style and interpretation. His photographs of people - celebrities or common people - have made him world famous.
You will have to be ready to throw away most of your traditional ideas. Antonin's images go beyond document, they speak of emotions and states of mind, both of the photographer and the person photographed.

Kratochvil won numerous awards, grants and honorable mentions dating back to 1975. The latest of these are the first place prizes at the 2002 World Press Photo Awards in the categories of general news and nature and the environment. The next is the 2004 grant from Aperture publishing. In addition, Kratochvil's fifth book Vanishing has been published in 2005 and marked another significant milestone for the craft to which he belongs. In 2001 he founded with other photojournalists the agency VII.
