Considering the extent of her work, you would think that the Olomouc photographer Milena Valušková has been involved in all areas of photography during her life. From the end of the 1960s, she professionally worked with classical studio photography and specialized in portraits of children in the so-called communal studio. In the 1970s she gained invaluable experience in the forensic medicine dissecting room where she photographed victims of violent crimes and the so-called corpora delicti for judicial proceedings. She also cooperated with the Faculty of Medicine in Olomouc in the preparation of study materials and she documented science and research projects. From 1977 to 1983 she studied art photography at the Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague. In the 1980s she worked as a photographer at the Olomouc centre of the State Institute for the Conservation of Historical Monuments and the Preservation of Nature.
