	ABOVE
	ABOVE is a native from California of unknown age and identity. He travels almost without a break around the world, like a postmodern beatnik who boasts about having almost anything, and whose work tries to reach everybody with such a kind of undefined art, that we are unable to name it. He’s not a graffiti artist and he never calls himself an artist nor a designer, but we can say that ABOVE is…

	HOMELAND DECAY
	The impulse for this article was provided by the magazine’s publisher as we were discussing the books I'd been reading, in search of a general overview of modern art and the modernist avant-gardes of central and Eastern Europe. My search ended in failure: these books caused only confusion. They did not provide orientation. For one, many countries in southeastern Europe were hardly discussed in…

	AT ARM’S LENGTH
	Contemporary art that engages with Eastern Europe tends to be viewed from a purely Western perspective. Bulgarian artist Kamen Stoyanov, an artist as an observer, makes no attempt to evade this question. Vienna’s MUMOK in Vienna played host last year to the exhibition “at arms length” by Stoyanov, in connection with the awards ceremony of the Viennafair. This exhibit took as its theme the…

THE WORLD ENGULFED BY TECHNOLOGY: A CRITIQUE OF NEW MEDIA

There is perhaps no term more problematic than newness. Despite its ambiguity, this word is surrounded by other generally unexpressed words. First and foremost, “new” always implies the possibility of change. It brings with it hope, and the suggestion of something different, something previously unknown and potentially better than what has existed before. New also means unexplored, uncertain,…

	HOW TO LIVE WITH NATURE: PAUL CHANEY’S DARK ECOLOGY
	What the English and Germans call Still Life and Stilleben, the French and Spanish know as Nature Morte and Naturaleza Muerta. Such cultural differences regarding a venerable art form suggest important questions about the artistic depiction of nature: Is it a mortification, a kind of embalming; or is it a vehicle for some more profound vital process—does art ‘give back’ to nature? Maybe the…

	THE ARCHITECTURE OF DYSTOPIA, ARCHITECTURE AND POWER IN LONDON TODAY
	In the past two years we had the opportunity to watch two excellent British science-fiction films depicting the near or perhaps distant future of the island we know as Great Britain. The first of the two movies, Children of Men (Alfonso Cuarón, 2006), tells of London in the year 2027. Due to global destruction and ecological catastrophe no human child has been born for 18 years and human…

	SPACESTRATEGIES AN ANSWER TO THE CHALLENGES OF THE CONTEMPORARY CITY?
	Writing about cities is indeed a modern phenomenon. It has been that way ever since the 21st century was declared the “century of urbanism,” ever since it was confirmed that every second person lives in an urban agglomeration and that soon more than half of humanity will be city-dwellers. But also, ever since the framework for thinking about globalization was shifted by Saskia Sassen to the idea…

	THE ACTIVE SPACETRATEGISTS
	The SpaceStrategies study concept has evolved very quickly into an interdisciplinary, intercultural group that has succeeded in creating a media opportunity for itself through strategic interventions in Berlin’s urban spaces. The artists within this group – all of them women – have very different backgrounds, interests and attitudes towards the idea of spatial strategies. Take Maria Luisa Stock;…

Slavka Kneppo:

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.
