Music for Lights & Shadows
More than an hour-long mixture of music, picture and light was created by a group of seven leading Czech jazz composers together with an iconic Norwegian composer Helge Sunde. The Concept Art Orchestra is a foremost Czech big band, with a unique line-up for this occasion including a string quartet and electronics.
España!
Contemporary music performed by the BERG Orchestra, this time presenting the best contemporary Spanish composers established on the international music scene.
Commander
The unique production combines a physical theatre performance with live music and a film starring child actors of Farm in the Cave studio to communicate an urgent, yet widely overlooked, topic – the online radicalisation of youth. The performers' dynamic movement, the pulse of live music, and disturbing images together create an unusual insight into the digital darkness that most of us are – perhaps intentionally – unaware of.
Festival FALL
Four days with art, literature, and learning. Discussion, author readings, meetings with experts, an exhibition, and interdisciplinary workshops for ages 5–105+ that develop creative and critical thinking and empathy. FALL. In love with stories.

Matters of the Heart: Dehnel, Němec, Háblová

Jan Vytiska's Literary Inspirations
Wallachian and Nordic legends are among the important inspirations for Jan Vytiska’s original paintings. In this guided tour of his current solo exhibition at DOX, The Ritual of Cursed Hearts, you can listen to the stories that are echoed in his works. With Jan Vytiska and curator Otto M. Urban.
Radka Bodzewicz's Literary Inspirations
Join artist Radka Bodzewicz and curator Michaela Šilpochová for a guided tour of the exhibition Beyond Words. During the tour, Bodzewicz will cast some light on her literary inspirations and the way she works with augmented reality.
Recycliterature
An open art workshop for children aged 7 and up and adults, where we will breathe new life into discarded printed materials. We will focus on collage - combining text and photographic reproduction. By linking originally unrelated and fragmented texts and images, new, bizarre, humorous situations will be created.
