Na místě. Franziska Lesák v rozhovoru se čtyřmi aktéry samizdatu / Vor Ort. Franziska Lesák im Gespräch mit vier Akteuren des Samisdat is a bilingual publication (German-Czech) of retrospective interviews that Franziska Lesák (art historian, born in Vienna and living in Berlin) led with four protagonists of Samisdat between 2006-2011.

She interviewed the author and translator Ivan Binar (*1942), the publisher and librarian Jiří Gruntorád (*1952), art historian and poet Věra Jirousová (1944-2011) and the art theorist Jiří Ševčík (*1940). This book is a testimony of the introspective liberating life of personalities at the time of external oppression during the communist regime.
