The 101st international Biannial Exhibition in Venice is to start off yet another stereotypical art masquarade in June without which the „art world“ just cannot live. This year´s theme is just as vague as the ones before: Past, presence and future. This gives the national pavilions a chance to present anything. The Czech presentation has been doing so with good portion of gortesqueness for years.
At the last minute this year, a competition was announced addressing specifically five artists: David Černý, Ivan Kafka, Vladimír Kokolia, Jiří Příhoda and Kateřina Vincourová. The committee, including Petr Nedoma (The Rudolfinum Gallery direktor), Věra Jiroutová (Lidové noviny art critic), Miloš Vojtěchovský (curator of the National Gallery´s modern and contemporary art collection), Kurt Gebaurer (teacher at the Applied Arts Academy) and Dagmar Šefčíková (from the Culture Ministry), selected Ivan Kafka´s project.
These are the preconditions. Wat the result is gong to be like is hard to estimate.

After long debate and the setting of criteria, we arrived at a list of names we consider significant for the local context, for the presentation of Czech art outside the country and especially for the future of art. Our criteria did not…
Acts, Misdemeanors and the Thoughts of the Persian King Medimon Acts, Misdemeanors and the Thoughts of the Persian King Medimon
There is nothing that has not already been done in culture, squeezed or pulled inside out, blown to dust. Classical culture today is made by scum. Those working in the fine arts who make paintings are called artists. Otherwise in the backwaters and marshlands the rest of the artists are lost in search of new and ever surprising methods. They must be earthbound, casual, political, managerial,…
My Career in Poetry or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Institution My Career in Poetry or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Institution
An American poet was invited to the White House in order to read his controversial plagiarized poetry. All tricked out and ready to do it his way, he comes to the “scandalous” realization that nothing bothers anyone anymore, and instead of banging your head against the wall it is better to build you own walls or at least little fences.
