	TEREZA DAMCOVÁ
	Tereza Damcová was born in 1977 in Brno. Since 1999 she has been studying at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Brno (the graphics atelier of Margita Titlová — Ylovsky). The self-portrait videos of Tereza Damcová make ones blood run cold. When in Srdce (Heart), she tears into a plasticine model of what is both the central muscle of the circulatory system and love, we can see how she increases her self…

	AL HURRA GUMA GUAR !GUMA GUAR: CELL, GALLERY JELENÍ, PRAGUE, 15 DECEMBER 2003 – 26 JANUARY 2004;GUMA GUAR: RECONSTRUCTING THE UTOPIA SYSTEM RULES, A.M. 180, 17 DECEMBER 2003 – 8 JANUARY 2004
	Mass media makes full use of its fictional potential. Al Jazeera is waging an undeclared information war against CNN, and both have emblazoned the same words on their artillery: “information” and “exclusive.” Less openly, they admit having “spheres of external interest,” and they divert us along with them into the world of speculation and X-files. The paradoxical meeting points of investigation,…

The Czech art scene has its own limitations, which have yet to be dissolved, and the desire or ability to dissolve them is still lacking. The best way to discover this is to go abroad and represent the domestic culture; all it takes is to be asked a few question by people who think you know more about it than they do. Near the end of November I went to Berlin with the intention of writing about…

	JUSTICE IN THE ARMS OF THE YELLOW PIERROT
	"The 8th Biennial in Istanbul, Sept. 18 – Nov. 16, 2003 A reasonable multicultural show — that’s how the biennial in Istanbul could be characterized. Last year the Turkish organizers requested American curator Dan Cameron to put on the biggest exhibition in the country. This employee of New York’s New Museum of Contemporary Art demonstrated to the skeptics of international monster actions…

	DOUBLE DISPLAY
	This autumn Prague’s Gallery Display put on two remarkable projects. First a full exhibition of the Dutchman Michael Kluiters (Nov. 11 to 30) and the weekly “sub:label” of Milan Salák (Dec. 1 – 7).Imaginary rooms and mysterious corridors fascinate Kluiters. For his projection Shopwindow in Display he divided the gallery into two rooms. In one room he projected on the glass of the street shop…

	END OF THE FAIRY TALE (BETWEEN THE FAIRY TALE AND VÁCLAV STRATIL)
	" (between the fairy tale and Václav Stratil) A fairy tale resides within the slants of the consciousness. Comparing it to rational mind is denied, as the end result is always untenable, or at best is only considered an emergence of the structures of the collective consciousness. However, at the very moment the fairy tale transforms into the one and only order of the world, it is accepted, and…

	INDIE TWINS
	Born in 1979 in Prague, Jakub Hošek has studied at the Prague Academy of Fine Arts since 1998 (atelier of Vladimír Skrepl) Born in 1982 in Prague, Anežka Hošková has studied at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Brno since 2001 (ateliers of Václav Stratil and Petr Kvíčala). The various activities of the siblings Hošek, now known as the Indie Twins, are in many ways a solid leap beyond the local…

The Czech art scene usually reserves the summer months for preparing the ground for fall shows. Some festivals are considered well in advance, but the harvest usually comes in September. And it appears that this year the launch of the season will not be attended by skepticism and a nagging feeling of absurdity: There is a certain joy and expectation in the air. Display, the trustworthy darling…

	JIŘÍ FRANTA
	Born in 1978, since 2000 he has studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague (currently in the studio of Vladimír Skrepl).As is the custom in the most liberal atelier of the AFA in Prague, Jiří Franta also has no problem swapping media. Franta — who approaches with chutzpah the delicate topics of violence, historical memory and the abuse of power — was accepted in 2000 as a member of Rafani, a…

	STOKER’S LONG FINGER SHADOWS
	These days people most often speak about artist Michal Pěchouček in the superlative. His talent is (suddenly or according to expectation — this is for each to decide) mature. Each step will therefore be observed with care. But let’s review what Michal Pěchouček has going for him: he has not gone the extra mile to curry public favor outside art territory; he is not the victim of quackish acts of…

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.
