Jiří Petrbok is opening up his Patient Diary at DOX

What happens when an artist decides to be completely honest with himself, with no stylisation or detachment – or, in the artist’s own words, “to stick his neck out all the way”? The exhibition Patient Diary at the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art focuses on the theme of self-portraiture, presenting the artist’s work from the 1990s up to the present as an unbroken record of a changing, constantly questioned “self”. Patient Diary is an open, at times unsettling, but often ironic record of personal experiences, emotions, and shifts in identity. The result is a powerful visual statement that oscillates between a personal confession and an imaginative game.
