VIETCONG VERSUS DODGE BALL
|
| "The Brno region advance design firm Pterodon has been active since 1998. But the groundwork was laid by Jarek Kolář and Petr Vlček earlier, in 1993-1994, when they created the adventure game The Secret of Donkey Island, one of the very first Czech games.

BIG HOPE (INTERVIEW WITH MIKLOS ERHARDT AND DOMINIC HISLOP)
|
| Could you please speak a little about the meaning of your project in Torino, why you wanted to do it, to what ends, and why in an art gallery? M.E., D.H.: We first went to Corso Brescia 14, Torino, around six months ago while we were working on a previous project.

INTERVIEW WITH VLADIMÍR SKREPL
|
| Be an Artist I. Do you enjoy your art or do you suffer over it? It’s connected, isn’t it? If there wasn’t pain, there’d be no ecstasy. So a kind of SM? Sure, basically that’s it.How did you come to be an artist? (laughs) That is, if I am actually there… That’s also a question. If I am there.GroupsYou used to played the electric guitar, didn’t you? I started around 12. But that doesn’t mean that I… |

END OF AN ERA
|
| "Significantly, one of the first and most important private contemporary art galleries has closed shop just as the political elite that formed post-totalitarian life in the Czech Republic over the past twelve years were voted out of office. On Sunday, June 23, the doors of Prague’s Gallery MXM closed for good. Amid the piles of catalogues and artwork belonging to artists who had just lost the… |

WHO`S THE MAN
|
| "RtMark: Interview with Ray Thomas by J. A. Buehler and Denisa KeraHooray! The now nearly mythical corporate pranksters, RtMark, were coming to town, or at least Ray Thomas, their spokesperson, was. It seemed time to finally get some answers (and maybe put a face to) some of the provocative issues these corporate media activists have a knack for raising: this mysterious group has been accused of… |

As a result of his efforts, many artists from the former Eastern Bloc are not only finding a place in Ústí, but also in Prague.In your work as a curator you mostly focus, as few here do, on post-communist art. How did you first become interested in something so specific? First,… |
