The initiative Mánes umělcům (Mánes for Artists) aims at a transformation of Nadace českého výtvarného umění (Czech Visual Art Fund) which administers the exhibition hall Mánes into a transparently organized institution that can better serve the artistic community.

For this purpose the initiative has organized democratic elections of new nine members of the fund's board who should replace the current ones and who will represent wide spectrum of artists, curators and theoreticians living in the Czech Republic. Elections will take place on May 18 from 2pm at DIVUS café. There will be also a „round table discussion“ during the vote.

For more information about the elections or the initiative see http://manes-umelcum.tumblr.com/

In his childhood, he suffered through tough social situations and…
Nick Land – An Experiment in Inhumanism 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.
