THE APOCALYPSE IS NOW

THE APOCALYPSE IS NOW. OUR DARKEST DREAMS AND VISIONS WILL COME TRUE. THE BEAST WILL TAKE CONTROL OVER ALL THE GOVERNMENTS ON EARTH AND LEAD HUMANITY TO RUIN. MAD COWS WILL ROMP THROUGH MARLBORO COUNTRY. BIG MAC CHOP DOWN THE RAIN FORESTS. THE PLANET OVERHEATS, THE ICECAPS MELTING. WEALTH IS CONCENTRATED IN THE HANDS OF A SMALL GROUP, KNOWN HISTORICALLY AS A FINANCIAL OLIGARCHY. THEY CONTROL…

	RAFANI 2: THE FUTURE SHOULD BE PLANNED
	It seemed for a moment that Rafani was losing its breath. This Czech art group — which investigates whether and how art can be linked to political ideologies and whether it is possible to carry on a deeper discussion outside of self-promotion — had became its own pastiche. Their tailored uniforms had frayed at the sleeves and their KSČM communist party membership cards were returned with humbug. …

	RAFANI 2: A NEW TRADITION
	Neotrad, Mama showroom for media and moving art, Rotterdam, 14.2 – 4.4. 2004 Mama in Rotterdam consistently produces contemporary shows that display vision while not alienating visitors. The latest exhibition Neotrad attempted to show how “interest in decorative crafts and techniques and the search for regional cultural heritage” permeate the thinking of contemporary artists. The assembled group…

MAREK POKORNÝ: WHO FROM WHERE TO WHERE AND WHO SWITCHES OFF WHOM

The curator and theoretician Marek Pokorný returned after a few years in Rome to the Czech Republic and became curator of the House of the Lords of Kunštát (dům pánů z Kunštátu) in Brno. A year later he left the position to become the director of the Moravian Gallery. Is this change a promise of new opportunities for contemporary art or the end of work well begun? You started profiling Dům…

	ONLY GOOD IDEAS
	NOD Praha, 15 January – 7 February 2004 Ivan Vosecký and Markéta Othová rolled themselves up into one creative ball for the sake of the exhibition Dobrý nápad (A Good Idea). This was the best idea they could have had. The doomed generation pictures we are used to from Vosecký and Othová’s voyeuristic melancholy were mixed into a precise formation of hybrid design, smoggy beauty and consumerist…

	NEVER THE TWAIN SHALL MEET
	The Bawag Foundation in Vienna is putting on a show until the middle of June of 12 artists from Bratislava, Budapest, Ljubljana, Prague, and Vienna, intended to define what art and culture is about within the context of an ”enlarging” or ”integrating” Europe. The show, titled Free Entrance, follows on a history of ”East” shows that have typically provided one interpretation of this rich and…

	TRANSMEDIALE 04 – ART AS DOWNRIGHT BABBLING AND POLITICAL FAILURE
	For a number of years now Transmediale, the Berlin festival of new media and art, has chosen to tag itself with activist watchwords like DIY – do it yourself, Play Global and now this year’s Fly Utopia! The purpose of the festival and several-day-long conferences is to propagate art and activist projects and ideas. In this case the words say nothing about the work and this year’s selection of…

DENISA KERA TALKING WITH A MEMBER OF THE RE-CODE

Denisa Kera: What were the reactions of people when you started this "service" and "bar code parody" on the web? Re-code: Initially the site was making the rounds through blog sites and more personal web sites by people more familiar with satire on the internet. The initial reaction was one that appreciated the humor of the site and we received comments that were very encouraging. When we…

	AMBITIOUS CURATORS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY
	At the moment, the biggest problem plaguing the Czech art scene is an astounding lack of curatorial vision and leadership. For evidence, one has to look no further than the overabundance of national surveys of contemporary art that we’re constantly subjected to, and are by now entirely bored with. One month it’s contemporary art from Croatia, the next month it’s Australian, the next month it’s…

	ARMORY SHOW NEW YORK 2004
	Armory Show, two words with one meaning: an exhibition of elite world galleries in New York. Anyway the galleries that set out a clear course of events through their position on the art market. The Armory Show has its own historical memory; it is not only some idea plucked out of thin air by the art business types. You will not find this name in the universal encyclopedias, but a certain…

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.
