Kateřina Štenclová – On the Surface of Time

Kateřina Štenclová – On the Surface of Time

Colour plays the main role in the work of painter Kateřina Štenclová, who uses colour in an abstract form to express her relationship to space. Štenclová has long been interested in so-called ‘spatial painting’, which she explores in her art and in the use of painting in site-specific installations made with plastic bags that capture the immediate creative process. The selection of recent works, combined with in situ installations transforms Café Fatal into a uniform visual whole.

Jiří Surůvka – Architects of war
02. 04. 2023 — 17. 09. 2023

Jiří Surůvka – Architects of war

Architects of War presents the work of the Ostrava artist, performer, photographer, curator and university teacher Jiří Surůvka, who is also a co-founder of the ‘Předkapela Lozinski’ (Opening Band Lozinski) performance group, the ‘Přirození’ (The Natural Ones, 1988–1992) art group and the ‘Návrat mistrů zábavy’ (Return of the Masters of Entertainment) cabaret. The gallery’s Printmaking Crossovers exhibition space will show not only Surůvka’s prints but also his paintings and object art. Working with his typical sense for sarcasm and hyperbole, Surůvka creates works critiquing society. His main targets are people’s narrow-mindedness and limitations in relation to ideology and political propaganda. The artist will present several performances as part of the exhibition.

LLEV – NATURALLISM
26. 03. 2023 — 20. 08. 2023

LLEV – NATURALLISM

The term NATURALLISM encompasses the creative processes and methods used by the LLEV studio, comprising creative and life partners Eva Mochalová and Marcel Mochal. This designer couple experiments with the development of new materials, which they then apply to their unique collections. The exhibition at the gallery’s Whitebox reflects their typical site-specific approach, which is defined by the architecture of the exhibition space. The exhibited products made of mycelium, glass, paper, wood and metal are presented in the form of a still life – i.e., a primary painting genre. But there are also other layers of meaning that reveal themselves.

Vojtěch Trocha and Vojtěch Hrubant – ZKUSMOS
26. 03. 2023 — 20. 08. 2023

Vojtěch Trocha and Vojtěch Hrubant – ZKUSMOS

The name of the exhibition, ZKUSMOS, is an original neologism invented to describe the working approach applied by the artistic duo and friends from Prague’s Academy of Fine Arts Vojtěch Trocha and Vojtěch Hrubant. Although at first glance Trocha’s art differs from Hrubant’s and vice versa, both artists produce works of an experimental nature that share a love for craftsmanship and an interest in history. Another important bond is their sense for humour and hyperbole, which permeates works made from a wide variety of often unusual materials. Each working in his own way, they seek and discover, explore, experiment, and arrange bits and pieces to create their own particular ZKUSMOS.
