Klára Stodolová: Dancing into the unconscious and back

The work of Klára Stodolová mixes painting with dance. The depths of the unconscious conceal many things, among them all human and personal experience, the laws of the universe, our fears and talents. To dance their healthy potential means to raise them into the light of consciousness and to incorporate them bodily. For Klárá, this can be done through Biodanza, an integrative system of movement created by the Chilean psychologist and lover or life Rolando Toro that she has practiced for the past eight years. Besides several large-format plein-air watercolours, the exhibition shows Klára’s graduation work from her study of Biodanza – a series of dance paintings depicting Biodanza’s Theoretical Model as well as the elements and archetypes of human experience.

Jakub Janovský – House of Cards

House of Cards presents works by Jakub Janovský from the past several years, with a focus on his long-standing interest in utopian, fictional and temporary buildings. He draws inspiration in equal measure from the dreams of avant-garde architects, actual contemporary buildings and his son’s bold experiments with wooden building blocks. Janovský explores all these sources of inspiration as a counterbalance to figural works with motifs of children’s games and as personal encounters in an anonymous city – but also as a specific, intimate homage to the classical themes of still-lifes and as a kind of vanitas, a metaphor for the fragile and ephemeral nature of existence.
