	HIDDEN SCENE IN BUDAPEST
	"The manifesto of kmkk (Two Artists, Two Curators), written in autumn last year proclaimed some of the troubles of the present Hungarian art scene. It denounced the lack of an effective infrastructure, the political and commercial manipulation of mainstream culture and problems with the reception and support of contemporary art. In addition, the ignorance of the institutional art apparatus,…

	SUPER STAGE
	"In the mid-1980s Bob Geldof came up with an ingenious way to help the starving people of third world nations. On his initiative the top rock stars in England locked themselves in a studio where they recorded a best-selling single while giving up the right to claim any artists’ fees. Five and a half million fans bought the record, bringing in a profit that topped eight million dollars.“All I’m…

	FROM THE OTHER SIDE
	No other large exhibition of visual art instigates so many conflicts as Documenta in Kassel, Germany. This was especially true of the 11th edition, this year curated by a non-European, Okwui Enwezor.The unifying element of the show was the way the creators perceive artistic production as an original intellectual activity. Thus the exhibition was the last word in this year’s Documenta discussions…

PLATFORM 6: UNREALIZED OPENNESS

Performers from Central Europe thank politicians and leading curators for their neglect and perfect isolationEwa Rybska & Wladyslaw KazmierczakDocumenta 11, from the performance artist’s point of view, is an ingenious exhibition. What performance art was postulating 30 years ago was finally carried out in this exhibition. Divisions between the art disciplines have been ripped asunder. Art has…

	ENWEZOR PUTS ON SOBER MEGASHOW
	This year’s Documenta (Kassel, Germany, 8 June–15 September) clearly proved the increasing tendency of art as activism — be it political, ecological, or social. Artistic director Okwui Enwezor and his team of curators gathered 116 artists from 45 countries to participate at this megashow, which takes place only once every five years. Artists from African nations and a number of Asian states had a…

	A HUNTER`S PARAPHRASE
	"Bambi’s story is well known, but his origins less so. In the 1920s, Austrian writer Felix Salten not only wrote the educational romance about an earnest young fawn, a loving mother doe and an authoritarian father buck, but he also penned the lascivious story of Josephine, a Vien-nese prostitute. The story was written in such a way that we cannot be asolutely sure if real or only literary…

	OVER THE EDGE OF REALITY
	"Science fiction and fantasy literature form a rather clearly defined genre whose core readers make up a closed community. Their internal codes and style may appear almost ridiculous to outside observers. The lives of hard-core fans reflect their efforts to live, at least in part, in the same parallel worlds described in their favorite books, and they support each other in this endeavor. Coming…

	BETWEEN EARTH AND SKY
	"From a recent series of 40 photographic images by Lukáš Jasanský and Martin Polák, four shots fulfil the criteria set by Jeff Wall for making a landscape portrait. According to Wall, “… we must withdraw a certain distance — far enough to detach ourselves from the immediate presence of other people (figures), but not so far as to lose the ability to distinguish them as agents in a social space.…

	A HAMPER FULL OF SNAKES
	Dear Friends, in my short opening speech at the Jelení Gallery, I don’t wish to talk about the exhibition in general. It is too varied for that and it would be hard for me to find aspects common to all the works. I’d therefore like to speak about just one of the exhibited images, which can clearly reveal the process of its creation.The painting I’m talking about is entitled A Hamper Full of…

	LEMME DO IT!
	"Out of the jumble of recent theme exhibitions, it’s the shows curated by those lacking an established art historical background that have stood out. To make their exposition menus more varied and lively, institutions have invited artists, and sometimes writers, philosophers and representatives of other professions, to offer a new look, consciously liberated from traditional forms of presentation…

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.
