We all want an SUV Ivan Mečl | editorial | 01.04.2007
WE ALL WANT AN SUV
The European Union was not created out of regional cultural interest but rather to support free, cross-border investment. If you have a full wallet or a credit card, then you are an investment. This is a given concerning EU residents, and therefore they can travel where they want. We don’t want poor people, and thus there’s an iron curtain at the eastern border of the Union. It’s just they…
Art clandestino with Luciana Lamothe Chris Gill | artist | 01.04.2007
ART CLANDESTINO WITH LUCIANA LAMOTHE
I hated the oppressive obedience of my school days. As a reaction to it the kids I befriended were far more inclined to cause chaos than to learn. Pubic hair in sandwiches, mud in hair, a healthy disdain for the National curriculum; every school had kids like these. I was surprised when I moved into the professional world that this oppression was even more systematically ingrained. So I…

I SEE, I HEAR, I BURN; A FEW NOTES ON THE SCULPTURES OF MILAN KUNC
Despite the fact that Milan Kunc has lived in his summer flat in Prague for three years, he is neither a Prague nor even a Czech painter. The catalogue Milan Kunc Paintings 1973–2006, published this year by Kant publishing house, traces Kunc’s work through the locales which he worked out of: Düsseldorf, Cologne, Los Angeles, New York, Milan, New York, Rome, Tuscany, Schlosstal, Prague… Kunc is…
INTERVIEW WITH ISRAEL MORA Ruth Estévez | interview | 01.04.2007
INTERVIEW WITH ISRAEL MORA
In the last years, Israel Mora’s artistic endeavors— mostly events and performances—have straddled the line between reality and simulacrum, both in form and content. Notably influenced by Mexico City (where he lives), Israel’s work functions like a representation of an underground society or counter-culture. Using his body as a site from which to work, Israel’s staged situations take on…

HECTOR FALCON, A PLASTIC MASCULINITY?
RESONANCES FROM 49: ALTERED METABOLISM People where / I come from / they survive without feelings or blood / I never could / was stoned to death / but I'm still living Morrissey, He cried In a previous article (Dominguez: 2005) I analyzed the photographic documentation of the performance 49: Altered Metabolism by Hector Falcon 1. The project, whose components dealt with various aspects of the…
Melancholia X Petr Brožka | fashion | 01.04.2007
MELANCHOLIA X
The renaissance of emotionality has been obvious in art circles for a relatively long time, but only subtly mirrored by mainstream society’s cultural conventions. In the real world, art already intermingles with complementary conventions. Expressed through the metaphor of "depersonalization," emotionality is paradoxically a simple expression of emotion. Therefore, it is often associated with the…
DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR Lenka Dolanová | seeing | 01.04.2007
DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR
In making art I’ve come to the point where all the images that I create exist only in my mind. Alfons Schilling lives in a spacious flat not far from Vienna’s Westbahnhof train station. I went to visit him in January 2007 in order to find out more about his experimental work with Woody Vasulka. The two men shared a studio together in New York for a short period during the 1960s. For both men,…
INVISIBLE PARLIAMENT Ivan Mečl | interview | 01.04.2007
INVISIBLE PARLIAMENT
"Kein Mensch kapiert, was das Europarlament is" Robert Birnbaum At the beginning of the 1990s, philosopher Mirek Vodrážka indicated in his Lao Tse-inspired texts that the best government is that which citizens do not even know exists. It’s possible that he didn’t realize then how close his prophecies were to becoming true. The European Parliament is truly something about which we know nothing. I…
Erste Bank Clemens Foscher | banking and finance | 01.04.2007
ERSTE BANK
Over the last few years Austrian companies have made substantial profits from taking over firms in the new EU member states. The Erste Bank Gruppe [First Bank Group], which has bought up formerly state-owned banks in seven countries, provides an example of this successful “Eastern expansion.” The work of the Erste Bank Foundation in Central and Eastern Europe is characterized by sponsorship…
Strategy for a Functional Model tranzitdisplay – A Contemporary Art and Culture Project Mariana Serranová | conceptual visions | 01.04.2007
STRATEGY FOR A FUNCTIONAL MODEL TRANZITDISPLAY – A CONTEMPORARY ART AND CULTURE PROJECT
On November 9, 2007, Mexican artist Erick Beltrán’s exhibition opened as part of Display Gallery’s introduction to its new space on Dittrichova Street in Prague. Prior to that, Ján Mančušká gave a performance of Jestli je na mně něco dobrého, jsem to jen já, kdo to ví (If there’s something good about who I am, then it’s just me. Who knows?) at the Světozor Cinema. A week later, a lecture was…

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.
