INCOMPLETE IMAGE OF THE BACKWATER
"Zvon, Prague’s biennial of young contemporary Czech artists, is now well established on the Czech arts scene. Failing to do so would have been impossible, as it really has no competition, except perhaps for Youth Salon in Zlín, Moravia; a show which is marginalized due to its distance from the big art cities. Zvon opened its fourth showcase this February, raising expectations only to the extent…

MATCH DRAW
"Zvon 2002, the fourth biennial of young contemporary Czech art, has seen the curatorial scepter pass from the project’s original curators, Karel Srp and Olga Mala, to Michal Koleček. Despite taking charge only months before the opening, Koleček never let the inevitable compromises become overtly visible in the show. Young contemporary Czech art in the show comes off as being nothing “special.”…

AN ATTACK IS THE BEST DEFENSE
"The symbol of the border, which has often and ambiguously been used in art theory was dusted off again and applied as the theme for this year’s third Manifesta biennial of contemporary European art.

READY FOR THE VENICE BIANNIAL
The 101st international Biannial Exhibition in Venice is to start off yet another stereotypical art masquarade in June without which the „art world“ just cannot live. This year´s theme is just as vague as the ones before: Past, presence and future. This gives the national pavilions a chance to present anything. The Czech presentation has been doing so with good portion of gortesqueness for years…

Pověsti o těžkých časech na trhu s uměním jsou opět velmi přehnané...
Letošní 50. ročník Art Basel přilákal celkem 93 000 návštěvníků a sběratelů z 80 zemí světa. 290 prémiových galerií představilo umělecká díla od počátku 20. století až po současnost. Hlavní sektor přehlídky, tradičně v prvním patře výstavního prostoru, představil 232 předních galerií z celého světa nabízející umění nejvyšší kvality. Veletrh ukázal vzestupný trend prodeje prostřednictvím galerií jak soukromým sbírkám, tak i institucím. Kromě hlavního veletrhu stály za návštěvu i ty přidružené: Volta, Liste a Photo Basel, k tomu doprovodné programy a výstavy v místních institucích, které kvalitou daleko přesahují hranice města tj. Kunsthalle Basel, Kunstmuseum, Tinguely muzeum nebo Fondation Beyeler.
