Come and see our exhibition Flightlessness by art group Little Warsaw! The exhibition will last until 3 April and part of the program will be a guided tour with curator Jaro Varga which will take place 31 March from 7 pm.
The Hungarian art group Little
Warsaw (András Gálik and Bálint Havas) belongs to the most striking
artists of their generation, which emerged on the contemporary art scene after
the year 1989. Their work is closely connected with issues specific in the
context of former Eastern Bloc countries – analysis and re-contextualization of
objects and ideas from the past, deconstruction of common art forms,
a striking anti-establishment attitude, a critical mirror held up to
modernism, retro-avant-garde, conceptualism and neo-conceptualism, the
expansion of the borders of art and transfer of artistic discourse into a
broader social reality.
FIGHTLESSNESS is the first solo
presentation of this art group in the Czech Republic. The prevailingly sculpture
exhibition develops several parallel narratives that have been in the center of
interest of Little Warsaw, along two basic lines: individual confrontation with
the external world and with oneself (a kind of artistic introspect).
