Komenského 10
curator Petr Kovář

The exhibition reflects the local situation of artists in the Vysočina region, who establish themselves in an environment outside art centers rather through social activities; by founding associations, organizing cultural events, acting through theater or various types of community informal education, rather than own creative activity.

From 2015 to 2020 the Austrian artist Reinhold Zisser transformed an abandoned wooden church into an meta installation called Notgalerie.

Lenka Černota: Wolfness

3. 3. — 21. 5. 2023

Komenského 10
curator Radek Wohlmuth

In her own words, Lenka Černota continuously explores humanity through experimentation with "wolfness". From paintings she painted for wolves with the belief that they would see and react to them, through her presence in their environment and painting in-situ, she has come to the current stage where she thinks and tries to paint an image as if she had a visual apparatus of wolf. The results of her painting experiments over the past few years are summarized in Lenka Černota's largest exhibition, significantly titled Wolfness. In addition to her own combined technique, based on hand painting, accompanied by drawings and note inscriptions, she will also present video sequences composed of camera trap images, documenting the fate of her "wolf" paintings left in the solitude of the forest.
