From the headlines to art: HIT BY NEWS at DOX explores the relationship between art and the press.

The exhibition HIT BY NEWS, which will take place at the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art in Prague from 6 March to 23 August 2026, opens up a fascinating dialogue between the worlds of art and the media. The selection of works from the Swiss collection of Annette and Peter Nobel shows how the press has shaped society and visual art over the past century – from early artistic experiments with print media to reflections on today’s media practices. Featuring nearly four hundred works by an array of prominent international artists, the exhibition presents an exceptionally comprehensive view of the phenomenon of press art – art that deals with news, headlines, newspaper print, and the very role of the media in society. Renowned curator Christoph Doswald has selected a unique collection of works for the exhibition at DOX, which shows that press art is more than just art that works with print media – it is an important visual response to a reality shaped by the news.

Curator: Christoph Doswald

The public opening of the exhibition will take place on 5 March at 7:00 p.m.
