KAFKAesque
The exhibition KAFKAesque focuses on reflections on Kafka’s work and poetics in contemporary visual art offering not a historical perspective of his work, but a view that reflects our present-day situation with all its complexities and ambiguities.
9 Feb – 22 Sep 2024Melancholy of the Outer Limits
The exhibition Melancholy of the Outer Limits presents, for the first time in its entirety, an extensive body of paintings created over the last ten years. Filled with faceless people lost in the ruins of cities, these paintings are a mirror of the artist's own soul.
6 Sep 2024 – 5 Jan 2025Point of View: Identity
Another instalment of the long-term project, which combines the format of an exhibition and a classroom and focuses on the theme of human identity. Who am I? What am I? The human form naturally takes centre stage; the body, its clothing, its behaviour. A person's identity and the different ways of looking at it.
26 Apr 2024 – 28 Feb 2025Adam Štech: houellebecq!
The exhibition houellebecq! by Adam Štech is neither a tribute to the French writer Michel Houellebecq nor an illustration of his works. Nor does it attempt to interpret or explain anything of his texts. Štech explores primarily himself, mediated in any way.
