The retrospective exhibition of Adolf Zika, who is often called the "enfant terrible of Czech photography" for his style, is probably his last photography exhibition. The exhibition is divided into two basic parts. The first consists of an extensive exhibition of black and white artistic nudes from 30x40cm to three by four meters! The second part consists of a separate exhibition called Charisma, where you will see mostly color portraits of world celebrities, such as Johnny Depp, Miloš Forman, Emerson Fittipaldi, Deny Trejo, Boris Becker and others. The exhibition is open to the public from 10.8.2018 to 11.9.2018 and is part of the Adolf Zika film festival.

The film Robert Vano – The Story of a Man, directed by Adolf Zika, was selected for the international film festival "Art Film Fest Košice" in the "Variety Select: Art Films" section – a selection of American critics' films about art.

On April 5, 2018, the premiere of the feature-length documentary film directed by Adolf Zika, Robert Vano - The Story of a Man, took place at the AERO cinema. This film completely deviates from the category of biographical documentaries about important figures of our time, because his approach to life was never driven by the steely will and determination that we are used to with important people. The viewer therefore meets someone with whom he can identify much more easily in relation to his own life than it could be with frequent biographies of important figures.

A new book by Adolf Zika, Charisma, was released in early December 2017. The author himself was surprised by the large number of positive reviews, for which he would like to express his gratitude. This book of portraits of prominent international and Czech personalities is currently available on the shelves of selected luxury bookstores and on the PRESCO e-shop.

On September 16, 2016, the television premiere of Adolf Zika's feature-length documentary film The Golden Man from Rio or "The Gentle Journey of Lukáš Krpálek" took place. An extraordinary story of an ordinary boy from Jihlava who, by complete mistake, got into a sport that was not in his original plan. A film about the iron will and immense perseverance of an athlete who, despite adversity, managed to break the proverbial vicious circle of missing the last titles in his dream career with a golden Olympic triumph!"
