Nick Land – An Experiment in Inhumanism Robin Mackay | profile | 27.02.2013 13:40
NICK LAND – AN EXPERIMENT IN INHUMANISM
Nick Land was a British philosopher but is no longer, though he is not dead. The almost neurotic fervor with which he scratched at the scars of reality has seduced more than a few promising academics onto the path of art that offends in its originality. The texts that he has left behind are reliably revolting and boring, and impel us to castrate their categorization as “mere” literature.
Magda Tóthová Milena Dimitrova | profile | 01.02.2011
MAGDA TÓTHOVÁ
Borrowing heavily from fairy tales, fables and science fiction, the art of Magda Tóthová revolves around modern utopias and social models and their failures. Her works address personal and social issues, both the private and the political. The stylistic device of personification is central to the social criticism emblematic of her work and to the negotiation of concepts used to construct norms.…

KASSABOYS: Cosmopolitan Local-Patriots Lenka Kukurová | profile | 01.01.2010
KASSABOYS: COSMOPOLITAN LOCAL-PATRIOTS
Three artists make up the Kassaboys. The group’s part catchy-pop, part local-patriotic moniker is a reference to their hometown, Košice, Slovakia. The “boys of Košice” are Radovan Čerevka (b. 1980) Tomáš Makara and Peter Vrábeľ (both b. 1982). Their art collective is one of several products of a very strong graduating class from the Faculty of the Arts at the Technical University of Košice, also…

TOMÁŠ DŽADOŇ: WILL TO TRADITION AND IMAGES OF NOSTALGIA
Today, more than ever, we find ourselves surrounded by images from the past. Yet we have a paradoxical tendency to describe our relationship to the past with words like disinterest, shallowness and loss. These words suggest a tendency to head through our daily lives with no significant concern for either the past or the future. Our contemporary society often feels disjointed, lacking in a…

NEW MYTHOLOGY: THE WORK OF SVÄTOPLUK MIKYTA
In the 19th century, Central Europe experienced a wave of National Revivals, which were heavily influenced by national mythology. Only now can we differentiate between the two – for a long time, national mythology and national history were revered as one and the same thing. It was not only unpopular, but also unacceptable, to question this presumption. As a result, national identity was part…

MAD MEG
Carrying a basket full of pens, pencils, paper, and ink, Mad Meg would go on walks—and be drawn into the depths of the earth, buried among putrefied human bodies, pursued by insect men and turbid animals. And she relates all this to us through her drawings of what she’d seen... Harmonious and nightmarish, her universe is a reflection of our time, our society. Her Tableaux de Digestions,…

XYZ ALL THAT’S IMPORTANT ... IS WITHIN YOUR REACH
In 1997, XYZ formed and descended upon the Bratislava art scene, its roster including Milan Tittel (1966) and Matej Gavula (1972). They have held several independent exhibitions such as XYZ at UBS (1998) (originally as part of a trio including Peter Ondrušek), Opening at the Cyprian Majerník Gallery (2000), XYZWAR at the Priestor Gallery (2001), as well as XYZ in the Prague Display Gallery …
