<p><b>Roman Pyatkovka (Роман Пятковка)</b> is a leading exponent of Ukrainian conceptual photography most strongly associated with the Kharkiv School of Fine Art Photography. Pyatkovka pioneered a style of photography which challenged the prevailing ethos of Socialist Realism, the style which had dominated Soviet photography and filmmaking since the early 1930s. In contrast to Socialist Realism which portrayed scenes of a harmonious communist society, photographers of the Kharkiv School challenged the prevailing status quo with a socially challenging contemporary aesthetic. Pyatkovka’s use of overlays and hand-colouring helped define this new style, one which would continue to push artistic boundaries both during and after the more artistically varied Perestroyka years. In 1989 he joined the National Society of Photo Artists of Ukraine (NSPAU).
</p><p>Pyatkovka has exhibited worldwide including at the <a href="Multimedia_Art_Museum%2C_Moscow" title="Multimedia Art Museum, Moscow">Multimedia Art Museum</a> (<a href="Moscow%2C_Russia" class="mw-redirect" title="Moscow, Russia">Moscow, Russia</a>), the <a href="National_Centre_for_Contemporary_Arts" title="National Centre for Contemporary Arts">National Centre for Contemporary Arts</a> (NCCA) (Moscow, Russia), Museum of Ken Damy (Bresha, Italy), <a href="Museum_of_Contemporary_Photography" title="Museum of Contemporary Photography">Museum of Contemporary Photography</a> (<a href="Chicago" title="Chicago">Chicago</a>, United States),<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="Moscow_Museum_of_Modern_Art" title="Moscow Museum of Modern Art">Moscow Museum of Modern Art</a> (Moscow, Russia), The Navigator Foundation (<a href="Boston" title="Boston">Boston</a>, USA), and ARTOTHEK (<a href="N%C3%BCrnberg%2C_Germany" class="mw-redirect" title="Nürnberg, Germany">Nürnberg, Germany</a>).

Much like most publications at the time, the magazine was state-run and loaded with <a href="Communist" class="mw-redirect" title="Communist">Communist</a> images. Pyatkovka, at the time an underground photographer, juxtaposed these state-approved images with his works, risking imprisonment. Pyatkovka’s aim is for the viewer to reconsider and reflect upon this period of Russian history through these contrasting images. It was this project that won him the Conceptual Photographer of the Year award at the 2013 <a href="Sony_World_Photography_Awards" class="mw-redirect" title="Sony World Photography Awards">Sony World Photography Awards</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
