Czechoslovakia / A Critical Reader

March 15 – May 12 2017, Start and end dates


Czechoslovakia / A Critical Reader presents the artists who critically examine the world in which they were born. Concerning the generations they are part of, these artists represent the different periods of Czechoslovakia. Political strategies and practice are imprinted on each author in the way how they were changing in the time and how they influenced his or her life. Therefore, artistic projections differ, for each of them it is a different kind of the disappointment and unfulfillment. But for each of them it is also a ground for thinking about the past mistakes. The exhibition is meant as a research of a social coexistence through an artwork. Exhibition as a place for critical reflection.
