	THE CRISIS OF THE DISCRETE TENDENCY
	Indication of a Problem A majority of the works at the recent exhibition Indikace (Indication) operated as discrete modifications of designated environments. This exhibition, which was prepared by the curator Mariana Serranová and held in a run-down former dentist’s office, featured one of the undamaged walls laboriously painted by Zbyněk Baladrán to look like a dilapidated wall. In the next…

	ART COMICS IS NOT A BUBBLE GUM AT ALL
	In Soviet times, the public’s attitude towards comics was no better than its attitude towards bubble gum. Both of them were short-range missiles used in ideological arguments about the ability of capitalism to make people stupid. Thoughtless gum chewing and thoughtless gazing at picture books (with text placed in a bubble) were symbols of the baneful influence of the market economy on unstable…

	WE HOPE THAT THE CHINESE WILL FORGIVE US
	We met the young director Lucie Králová to discuss her new documentary Ztracená dovolená (Lost Vacation). Before we switched on the recorder she apologized for not being able to speak freely about the film, since she wants the film to surprise the viewers. But the structure of the interview was clear: we were going to speak about the discovery of 22 sets of negatives documenting a journey of a…

	MARINA LIPNO - A PORT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS
	It only took a few years for the buildings rise up along the banks of the Lipno dam. They piqued interest not only because of the quality of their architecture, but because of the conditions under which they were built and how they changed the life and appearance of the village which had nearly disappeared from the map. The complex with a docking area bears the proud name Marina Lipno. Complexes…

	PETRA HEROTOVÁ
	Petra Herotová was born in 1980 and since 2004 has been studying in the intermedia and conceptual studio of Jiří David at Prague’s VŠUP. Trying to define the key subejcts of Petra’s work, we can use words like “communication,” “family,” “identity.” But that is so general that we should add at least three more concrete indications: “screwdriver,” “smilies” and “daddy.” What comes out of this? …

	PAVEL ŠVEC
	“When the medicine helps, we don’t ask where it comes from.” (Pavel Ryška in a critique of Pavel Švec’s Life on Other Planets) I would say, “When the medicine doesn’t help, we have another prescribed.” And we can never admit to ourselves our own mortality. We try to keep ourselves alive as long as possible, although we don’t know why; we think of long life as if it was some sort of important…

	PERIFERIC BIENNIAL. COMMONOPOLY IN THE ARTSCENE
	The business. The pleasure. From outside the Romanian art scene, one could observe that the country benefits from a developed art infrastructure similar to that of any Western country. There are specialized galleries, a Museum of Contemporary Art (MNAC), some festivals, 3 important art magazines (Idea, arts + society, Cluj-Napoca; Pavilion magazine, Bucharest and Vector magazine, Iasi) and no…

	BEAUTY ON THE BOTTOM, IN BYTOM - EXGIRLS’ BAD NEWS
	Curators Magdalena Ujma and Joanna Zielińska have picked up Helen of Troy’s tale where she left it. Carefully crafted for Bytom—an industrial town in Polish Silesia surrounded by the steep slag-hills of discontinued coal-mines—this exhibition seeks to reveal a sublime nuance that lurks within contemporary ideas of beauty, and is visible in news-media imagery. Last year, the two curators—who…

	COPYRIGHT
	The festival of contemporary art Tina B. was supposed to be the most prestigious action of this summer. Visiting it I recalled my old wish to award anti-prizes in visual art just like in any other field. Tina B. would be in the running for the Fiasco of the Year. Odd and even years Tina B. is a fictitious artist and an acronym at the same time: This Is Not Another Biennale. In the Czech…
