- Comment: You have a major problem wth references.This is a prime example of multiple instances of WP:CITEKILL. Instead we need one excellent reference per fact asserted. If you are sure it is beneficial, two, and at an absolute maximum, three. Three is not a target, it's a limit. Aim for one. A fact you assert, once verified in a reliable source, is verified. More is gilding the lily. Please choose the very best in each case of multiple referencing for a single point and either drop or repurpose the remainder.It is impossible to review until we know which references you will choose 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 18:28, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

Marie Tomanova is a Czech-born, New York City based artist. Her work focuses primarily on issues of identity and displacement. She first came to international attention with her first book, Young American, which celebrates individuality and youth, particularly in regard to gender, sexuality, and self-expression.
Tomanova is the subject of a feature-length documentary film with HBO by director Marie Dvorkova, World Between Us, which premiered at the Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival in 2024.[1] The film traces a five year arc of Tomanova's artistic and personal life since her first New York City solo art exhibition in 2018, Young American, through multiple international exhibitions and book projects, including Tomanova being featured in the New York Times,[2] and photographing herself for the cover of Vogue CS in June 2022.[3]
Early life and education
editMarie Tomanova was born in Valtice, a village in the South Moravian region of the Czech Republic, near the Austrian border. She came of age during the post-Velvet Revolution (1989), which ended over 40 years of communist rule of Czechoslovakia.[citation needed]
Tomanova received a MFA in painting from Masaryk University, Faculty of Fine Arts, VUT Brno, Czech Republic.[citation needed]
Career
editTomanova left the Czech Republic in 2011 to move to the United States.[4]
Her first series, Displacements (2012–2016), focused on themes of identity, belonging, and kinetic memory.[5][6][7][8] Displacements gained the attention of curators working with the theme of feminism and beginning in 2015 Tomanova's work was soon included in numerous group exhibitions with a feminist focus,[9] most notably at A.I.R. Gallery, a feminist, artist-directed, nonprofit arts organization and exhibition space for women founded in 1972 in Brooklyn, New York to support the visibility of female and non-binary artists. In 2015, Tomanova was included in Catherine Morris' Who's Afraid of Feminism at A.I.R..[10]
Beginning in 2016, Tomanova embarked on co-curating a series of exhibitions at the Czech Center New York between 2016 and 2018 as part of a new arts-based initiative, New Bohemia, named after and established in part to the success of her 2016 co-curated exhibition Youth Explosion: The New Bohemia,[11] which in addition to her own work included a roster of emerging young, queer-identifying artists such as Bobbi Salvör Menuez, Michael Baily-Gates, and Ethan James Green.[12]
In 2017, as a means of drawing attention to the largely overlooked work of young post-Eastern Bloc artists, she co-curated Baby, I Like It Raw: Post-Eastern Bloc Photography and Video,[13][14][15] an exhibition that featured the work Slava Mogutin, Sasha Kurmaz, Anya Schiller, Irina Yulieva, as well as Tomanova herself.[16][17] In 2018, Tomanova co-curated her final exhibition for the Czech Center New York, Muse Muse,[18] for which she invited curators to present the work of artists. Included in this show were photographer Pixy Liao and painter Teresa Chromati.[citation needed]
In 2018, Tomanova had her first significant solo art exhibition at the Czech Center New York, Young American.[19][20][21][22][23][24][25] Tomanova developed the Young American exhibition into a book by the same name that garnered international recognition.[26][27][28][29][30][31] The Introduction was written by photographer Ryan McGinley.[32][33][34][35][36][37] In her July 11, 2018 article for Vice on Tomanova, "An Immigrant’s Photos of American Youth Give Us Hope for the Future, Kara Weinstein writes, "America” is a fraught concept these days. At a moment when the government is forcibly separating children from their immigrant parents, partisan justices seem poised to roll back reproductive freedom, and Trump is beefing with China and Europe while cozying up to Putin, not a lot of young people are feeling particularly proud to be American."[38] Tomanova's Young American touched a nerve, channeling, "something of a cultural zeitgeist," as Adam Lehrer writes for Forbes.[39]
Tomanova's new work for her New York New York project was first exhibited at Live For The Weather, her 2020 exhibition for the European Month of Photography at the Tschechisches Zentrum Berlin in the fall of 2020, just prior to the COVID lockdown of Berlin in mid-November.[40][41][42][43][44][45] Like Young American, New York New York garnered international acclaim for the her portrayal of New York City from the point of view of a Czech immigrant.[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56]
After eight years in the US, Tomanova returned to her childhood home, where she felt estranged.[57] Tomanova writes in an October 5, 2022 interview with Gilda Bruno for The British Journal of Photography, “Everything was new, different, and foreign.”[58] The documentation of the next several weeks of this return home is the subject of Tomanova's It Was Once My Universe body of photographic work, which she would publish as a book with Tokyo-based publisher Super Labo in 2022.[59][60]
In 2022, Tomanova endeavored to take an instant photograph of herself each day for the period of one year, January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2023. She failed. There were three weeks in July, 2022 during which she did not take photographs.[61]
Between February and May 2023, Marie Tomanova rented a 3.5 by 3.5 meter studio located at 5 East Broadway—literally, a small, crowded room—on the fourth floor of a New York City walk-up building and invited twenty-eight youth to come and tell her their dreams, to dance, to take photographs, and to film.[62] This latest body of work titled 5 East Broadway consists of a series of color and black and white photographs and two artist films, Beat of My Heart (2023) and 14 Dreamers (I Want to be the Next Courtney Love…Only Better) (2023).[63]
While Tomanova received her MFA in painting, she only returned to that medium with a 2024 exhibition at C24 Gallery, Lost and Found.[64]
