Martin Fryč, snad se dá říci, že neúnavně a hluboko mapuje výstavy v Praze. Trošku si ho podruhé a i poprvé přiblížíme.

Martin Fryč00:00:45.680
00:00:45.680
What's your profession?00:02:17.691
00:02:17.691
I work in HR.00:02:21.083
00:02:21.083
I offer managers to take up jobs for the competitor.00:02:23.865
00:02:23.865
As a recruitment agency working on projects,00:02:30.554
00:02:30.554
we always look for specific people.00:02:34.899
00:02:34.899
How did you become interested in art?00:02:39.524
00:02:39.524
I'm interested in all kinds of things.00:02:43.278
00:02:43.278
As children, my brother and I had many hobbies,00:02:47.204
00:02:47.204
from phillumeny, philately or astronomy to history.00:02:51.675
00:02:51.675
All kinds of humanities.00:02:57.413
00:02:57.413
We also liked art but we knew little about it.00:03:00.413
00:03:00.413
I took up going to vernissages in the early 90's.00:03:06.262
00:03:06.262
I had a friend working at the Manes Exhibition Hall00:03:11.871
00:03:11.871
who kept inviting me.00:03:16.950
00:03:16.950
Do you collect art?00:03:21.240
00:03:21.240
No, not at all.00:03:24.800
00:03:24.800
People often ask me about that but I just don't.00:03:27.936
00:03:27.936
I am a collector but I collect other things,00:03:33.656
00:03:33.656
such as old maps and guides.00:03:38.410
00:03:38.410
I'm interested in the development of Czech-German relations.00:03:42.379
00:03:42.379
Your beginnings? And your Achilles's heel?00:03:48.283
00:03:48.283
At the beginning,00:03:52.783
00:03:52.783
it was clear that people needed to know the events' locale.00:03:55.786
00:03:55.786
Facebook only gives you this invisible gray line.00:04:01.719
00:04:01.719
I used it until some people asked me00:04:06.659
00:04:06.659
why I didn't put there the actual address.00:04:10.996
00:04:10.996
You know, for people who aren't from Prague.00:04:14.608
00:04:14.608
My Achilles's heel are cafe's00:04:18.917
00:04:18.917
because it's hard to take photos there.00:04:22.917
00:04:22.917
How do you make up your week schedule?00:04:30.264
00:04:30.264
At first I used to browse the web.00:04:34.030
00:04:34.030
I didn't use ArtMap that much,00:04:38.545
00:04:38.545
rather Jelibojelito because someone told me about it.00:04:43.127
00:04:43.127
I also like Ludvík Hlavlíček's CCA.00:04:50.260
00:04:50.260
Do you help yourself to some wine and snacks?00:04:54.322
00:04:54.322
Yes, of course.00:04:58.141
00:04:58.141
I go to vernissages to enjoy myself.00:05:00.641
00:05:00.641
I chat with people about various things,00:05:04.294
00:05:04.294
although mostly about art.00:05:09.073
00:05:09.073
Do you have a time limit?00:05:14.041
00:05:14.041
Well, I do, until 8 or 8:30.00:05:16.783
00:05:16.783
I need to spend some time with my family.00:05:19.783
00:05:19.783
But once or twice a week I stay out till 11.00:05:24.471
00:05:24.471
Some vernissages are social events, after all.00:05:29.440
00:05:29.440
Hello.00:05:34.700
00:05:34.700
Your name? - I'm a friend of Charlie's.00:05:37.402
00:05:37.402
He didn't let me down, that's good.00:05:54.742
00:05:54.742
It's quite dark in here.00:06:13.668
00:06:13.668
I'll have to use flash everywhere.00:06:21.860
00:06:21.860
Hi. Charlie allowed me to take some photos.00:06:31.642
00:06:31.642
I've only seen his works at a joint exhibition00:06:44.612
00:06:44.612
at the Police Museum.00:06:49.434
00:06:49.434
Quite ironic for an exhibition of underground artists.00:06:52.860
00:06:52.860
I took there my last picture of Magor Jirous.00:06:58.530
00:06:58.530
And where's the author?00:07:05.470
00:07:05.470
I'm gonna use flash, the light is weird in here.00:07:09.647
00:07:09.647
Or you know what, I'll try it both ways.00:07:14.941
00:07:14.941
Yeah, that's what I thought. I don't like that.00:07:19.528
00:07:19.528
Now, that's better.00:07:25.532
00:07:25.532
The sidelight isn't great, but fine.00:07:29.168
00:07:29.168
OK. Next, some conceptual art and then architecture.00:07:34.449
00:07:34.449
The history? And how did you pick your camera?00:08:01.228
00:08:01.228
I started to take photos after the Revolution.00:08:05.704
00:08:05.704
Throughout the 90's, I'd go only to some vernissages00:08:11.708
00:08:11.708
where I'd been invited.00:08:17.025
00:08:17.025
I used a Nokia phone with a terrible VGA camera.00:08:21.411
00:08:21.411
My first real camera was a Sony.00:08:27.418
00:08:27.418
I liked it so I got a better Sony camera.00:08:32.031
00:08:32.031
It was a gift from my family.00:08:36.811
00:08:36.811
It cost 5,500 Czech crowns.00:08:41.700
00:08:41.700
It had a lousy zoom but a great lens speed.00:08:45.140
00:08:45.140
I'd had it for two months00:08:51.174
00:08:51.174
until one day I stumbled with the camera in my hand00:08:54.338
00:08:54.338
and the camera got smashed.00:08:59.606
00:08:59.606
I wrote this on Facebook00:09:03.647
00:09:03.647
and the photographer Michal Šeba replied he had an old Ixus00:09:06.647
00:09:06.647
that would be just fine for my purposes. And it was.00:09:13.000
00:09:13.000
Canon is a good brand.00:09:18.132
00:09:18.132
Despite that, I later got our usual family brand Olympus,00:09:22.123
00:09:22.123
which wasn't the best idea.00:09:29.135
00:09:29.135
I like that it has a 12x zoom,00:09:32.738
00:09:32.738
it can come in handy for vernissages.00:09:37.633
00:09:37.633
But the lens speed is bad so I have to use flash,00:09:42.674
00:09:42.674
and flash with this camera means blue photos.00:09:47.674
00:09:47.674
Guys, try to look good, I'll be in a documentary.00:09:52.574
00:09:52.574
You're my second vernissage today.00:09:57.418
00:09:57.418
There will be four in total. No, five,00:10:01.918
00:10:01.918
but the fifth is for the President and I don't want to risk that.00:10:05.602
00:10:05.602
So let's hit the stairs. These are really tricky.00:10:12.161
00:10:12.161
This looks interesting.00:10:20.590
00:10:20.590
My problem with conceptual exhibitions00:10:39.068
00:10:39.068
is that I often have no time to read the texts,00:10:42.954
00:10:42.954
although they're crucial.00:10:47.742
00:10:47.742
Sometimes I'm not sure what the exhibition was about.00:10:51.263
00:10:51.263
I like this exhibition as such.00:10:56.813
00:10:56.813
But there were others that I didn't get at all.00:11:00.313
00:11:00.313
Bye!00:11:05.254
00:11:05.254
I'm a fast gallery goer. I don't lose time.00:11:11.666
00:11:11.666
I hardly ever come here, although they have good exhibitions.00:11:43.191
00:11:43.191
But it's kind of far-flung for me.00:11:50.024
00:11:50.024
I've always had this rule, to keep my eyes open.00:11:55.044
00:11:55.044
Not only for safety, though.00:12:00.245
00:12:00.245
One day a funny thing happened to me.00:12:04.454
00:12:04.454
I was walking down a street in the Old Town00:12:09.934
00:12:09.934
and I found an invitation lying on the sidewalk.00:12:14.323
00:12:14.323
It was for a vernissage later that day so I went there.00:12:19.218
00:12:19.218
I like trying new things.00:12:24.758
00:12:24.758
If I ever get fed up, I'll stop doing it.00:12:28.252
00:12:28.252
Among the reasons why I document the exhibitions00:12:33.532
00:12:33.532
is that I never know if it's not the last time.00:12:38.637
00:12:38.637
Not in my life, but the last time I do this.00:12:43.224
00:12:43.224
Galleries? I won't give any names so as not to offend anyone.00:12:48.705
00:12:48.705
But one gallery told me they didn't need any publicity00:12:55.675
00:12:55.675
because their vernissages00:13:01.675
00:13:01.675
were intended only for a group of chosen collectors.00:13:04.867
00:13:04.867
Peter!00:13:09.503
00:13:09.503
You're early, too. Hi!00:13:18.532
00:13:18.532
We'll see. Zdeněk must be at the lecture.00:13:26.533
00:13:26.533
How come? What do you plan to do there?00:13:33.349
00:13:33.349
It lasts till 7:30.00:13:37.739
00:13:37.739
Hello. - Hello! Your name, please?00:13:40.239
00:13:40.239
My name is Berger but I may not be on the list.00:13:45.409
00:13:45.409
Do you have a business card? - No, sorry.00:13:49.909
00:13:49.909
I take pictures very quickly.00:13:53.830
00:13:53.830
Sometimes I'm so fast that the photos get blurry.00:14:01.681
00:14:01.681
At architecture exhibitions,00:14:06.647
00:14:06.647
I look for visually catching works that would attract visitors.00:14:10.147
00:14:10.147
My network also includes many architects00:14:18.766
00:14:18.766
who use me as a source of professional information.00:14:25.064
00:14:25.064
For me, architecture has a purely esthetic interest.00:14:30.991
00:14:30.991
Technical aspects are less important00:14:36.531
00:14:36.531
because I see architecture as art.00:14:41.100
00:14:41.100
If the artist's portrait is provided, I document it as well.00:14:45.757
00:14:45.757
I often watch architecture documentaries on TV.00:14:52.297
00:14:52.297
I think architects, like artists,00:14:57.775
00:14:57.775
understand the importance of symbiosis.00:15:01.275
00:15:01.275
They know how useful it is to interconnect everything.00:15:08.230
00:15:08.230
Fried olives. Interesting.00:15:19.197
00:15:19.197
All right. Where did you get the wine?00:15:22.582
00:15:22.582
Why do you take photos, not videos?00:15:35.744
00:15:35.744
Firstly, it's easier for me.00:15:39.445
00:15:39.445
Secondly, video cameras are heavier,00:15:45.013
00:15:45.013
although modern still cameras can also shoot videos.00:15:48.513
00:15:48.513
And thirdly, photo editing is easier than video editing.00:15:54.238
00:15:54.238
I can do it on my own.00:15:59.738
00:15:59.738
Hi.00:16:14.947
00:16:14.947
I can repeat everything I said before, but...00:16:58.759
00:16:58.759
