ANTONIO NEGRI IN THE PORCELAIN WORKSHOP
If we ask ourselves what (if any) unique message has been bequeathed to us by postmodern theory, the hardest work would be agreeing on what that message is. Its usefulness cannot be reduced to words like diffusion, ambiguity, mystification or mere skepticism; in all likelihood we would look for a solution in vain. The Italian neomarxist and political philosopher Antonio Negri, a leading…

WHAT IS A FEMINIST NOW? CONSUMERISM CAPITALISM CLASS AND THE BODY
When, in my 2003 performance piece Shop Window, I invited the public to spend time with, and to photograph, naked women of widely varying ages in Gallery Václav Špála Prague, I was acting from a powerful gut-level instinct. This instinct came in direct response to the gender polarisation I saw on the streets around me, in the imagery of women which were littered across the billboards and…

HAPPY HOUSE
When we dream of changing the world it is commonly supposed to be idealism. The label “romantic idealism” usually implies the utmost disapproval. Particularly refined minds shape their idealistic views into teachings and programmes, provoking revolutions. But when a revolution fails to occur, the concepts, stubbornly focusing on the search for the way to change and improve the lives of the…
Rover Lenka Kukurová | autoeroticism | 01.02.2010
ROVER
When Radim Labuda won the Jindřich Chalupecký Award, he used the financial reward to buy a car. His trip from Britain to Prague, taking the car apart and selling spare parts to a gallery became a motive for the Case study exhibition. The important thing is that the car purchased was a Rover 75,1 which is a symbol of the rise and fall of one of the strongest brands in the automobile industry. I…
Censor This! Tony Ozuna | erotica | 01.02.2010
CENSOR THIS!
Talking about narcissism, I was once in a pseudo soft-porn movie, but just as an extra. It’s called Blue Movie and of course it’s not Warhol’s film of the same name. It was a B-Movie that was never released: it didn’t even go straight to video—instead it went straight to oblivion. It was a seminal attempt to make a movie like Zack and Miri Make a Porno, but instead it had two college-aged male…
The triumphal march of the vuvuzela:  can we ban elephants from trumpeting? Jiří M. Špičák | sound | 01.02.2010
THE TRIUMPHAL MARCH OF THE VUVUZELA: CAN WE BAN ELEPHANTS FROM TRUMPETING?
The big hit of this year’s football World Cup in South Africa, the plastic vuvuzela—used in general by South African fans to trumpet a monotone symphony of football fandom—has became a popular target of colorful comparisons. This 65-centimeter long “horrendous whistle,” as Czech midfielder Tomáš Rosický has called it, is earning labels left and right—mostly of the pejorative type. The trumpet of…

PABLO HELGUERA
Snobby curators, egotistical artists on the look out for their next residency, gallerists who have done one too many Art Fairs, collectors more interested in market value and art-world hangers-on; all of these and more are the characters that Pablo Helguera, creator of Artoons, has in his sights. Pricking the pomposity of the rarified atmosphere of the galleries and museums that are known as the…

POSTROCK 101
I. “And how deep would you say this pool is?” asks the guide in the cave, pointing over the railing at a puddle of crystal clear water with a slight emerald green tinge. It looks as if you could stand in it with your head above the water, but the guide quickly corrects our error, “Six meters. Isn’t it amazing how the water can make the bottom appear so much closer?” Any decent cave tour will…
