Artists like Bedřich Fritta and Norbert Troller worked alongside conductor Karel Ančerl, cantor Karl Fischer, and composer Viktor Ullmann.</p><p><strong>Remember the lives that triumphed in the midst of torment with text combined with photos taken at <em>Terezín and Theresienstadt: Concentration Camp and Ghetto </em>(a Travel Photo Art book)<em>. </em></strong></p><p>In the Travel Photo Art series, traditional tourism panoramas mix with arthouse aesthetics.
