T-Club 2nd edition

The first edition of the book T-Club is sold out only 4 months it was released. The second edition follows with bit new, shiny dust-jacket but all the rest stay the same.

The book T-Club by Libuše Jarcovjáková shows photographs taken between 1983-85 in the legendary LGBTQ bar in Prague.

The photos were taken between 1983-85 during the totalitarianism of former Czechoslovakia. But what we see is a joyful time spent in the club where people went to seek for freedom without fear and borders, where they released their passion and joy for life.

Photographer Libuše Jarcovjáková was regular guest there. She was part of the family. T-Club was a place where you could meet people of all age. Beautiful young men and beautiful young women. Effeminate “B’s” and decent-looking gentlemen who jumped away from their families for a while. Female footballers, drugstore assistants, postmen or train conductors, waiters, taxi drivers and for sure the secret police too.

The book is the first comprehensive photographic publication mapping this inner universe of the famous bar.
