Michael Borek had a recent exhibition, “From the White House to Libeň”, of his work in Palmovka Synagogue in Prague, Czech Republic. The show presents three projects: "Treachery of Images" inspired by Rene Magritte shows the photos of the White House and American presidents on the sides of tourist buses. "Scranton Lace" captures abandoned factory in Pennsylvania and "Aimless Walk Reprise" shows disappearing Prague outskirts in Libeň Island together with the idealized rendition of the newly constructed apartments on the posters put up by the developer.
