Jaroslav Prokeš a Petra Vlachynská – K dispozici

Petra Vlachynská and Jaroslav Prokes’s joint exhibition project with the simple yet ambiguous title DISPOSITION works consequently with the specific layout of the ground floor spaces in the north wing of the Gallery of the Central Bohemian Region. Through the use of elementary forms, both installations respond to the spatial axes of the former Jesuit College. Petra Vlachynská works with a horizontal view down the north wing’s main corridor, while Jaroslav Prokeš responds to the glass areas to the left of the main entrance from Smíškova Street (Projectroom). In their work, both artists have taken into account the building’s cultural and spiritual history. Quietly and contemplatively, yet also sculpturally and as installations, their works emphatically transform the space and how it is perceived. Their works speak in a language of elemental forms, symbolic intersections and archetypes. A shared theme, one that adds an additional layer of meaning, relates to the phenomenon of attention and the possibilities of perception.

Markéta Váradiová – DAILY DREAMING

Sculptor and multimedia artist Markéta Váradiová (born 1973) creates objects and installations in which she uses physical phenomena to produce a specific visuality that stimulates the viewer’s imagination and uncovers hidden layers of a space or place. For GASK’s Experimental Space, she has put together two unrelated installations whose common denominator is the concept of ambivalence: an ambiguous interpretation of the primary visual situation and its shifting meaning – a single theme explored in two places and in two different ways.

František Štorm – Maldorör Disco

The title of the latest art and music project by typographer, painter, printmaker, founder of the legendary Střešovice type foundry and musician/songwriter František Štorm, Maldorör Disco, combines the seemingly uncombinable – entirely in the spirit of the legendary ‘chance encounter of a sewing machine and an umbrella on an operating table’. The artist lets visitors peer into his studio, where he works on several fronts simultaneously – along with musical experiments, group practice sessions and demo recordings, the project has produced a series of wildly colourful psychedelic paintings, which form the basis for the original graphic design that Štorm has used for the entire project and which features the widespread use of a dominant original typeface. .
