Prostory narace
Idea výstavy vychází z jistých společných tendencí u řady děl, která stojí na hraně instalačního umění, procesuálních pozůstatků a ohledávání narativních struktur. Divák se zde stává aktivní spojnicí – čtenářem fragmentálního textu, který se snaží složit do pro něj smysluplného celku. Dílo samo, či alespoň struktura znaků, jež ho tvoří, se stává scénou pro děj – stojí vlastně mezi narativitou textu a mimezí divadla.
- We made a project in a curator cooperation00:00:01.038
- 00:00:01.038
- with Caroline Krzyszton in the Gallery NoD.00:00:06.038
- 00:00:06.038
- I could say that the project is nothing special.00:00:09.822
- 00:00:09.822

- 00:00:14.269
- which has been present in art scene for a long time.00:00:17.231
- 00:00:17.231
- We wanted to highlight the current question, namely, that is00:00:23.270
- 00:00:23.270
- nowadays, various approaches to visual artworks,00:00:27.621
- 00:00:27.621
- even those that before were not considered suitable, are being discussed.00:00:35.895
- 00:00:35.895
- In our case, it is the narration that has been seen negatively.00:00:44.681
- 00:00:44.681
- Within the artistic context,00:00:48.336
- 00:00:48.336
- the narrativeness has always been seen as pejorative.00:00:50.300
- 00:00:50.300
- The theme of narration is something paradoxical.00:00:54.489
- 00:00:54.489
- I think we liked to show artworks, which are experimental,00:01:01.283
- 00:01:01.283
- because they deal this theme in the context of visual arts.00:01:05.019
- 00:01:05.019
- Surely, it has its parallels in experimental00:01:12.210
- 00:01:12.210

- Together with Caroline, we chose some artists,00:01:48.768
- 00:01:48.768
- who work with texts, from the literary perspective,00:01:53.570
- 00:01:53.570
- for example, we chose Arnaud Maisetti,00:01:58.552
- 00:01:58.552
- a french writer, working with the theme in the context that could be close00:02:01.399
- 00:02:01.399
- to the Czech experimental prose of the 1960´s.00:02:06.695
- 00:02:06.695

- 00:02:10.653
- with the visual aspects of the narration where00:02:16.915
- 00:02:16.915
- the story disappears and still the narration mechanisms are able to work.00:02:21.594
- 00:02:21.594
- Then it deals with the context of a story and its limitation.00:02:26.030
- 00:02:26.030
- In fact, the exhibition is presented quite analytically.00:02:29.870
- 00:02:29.870
- On the other hand, we wanted to present the exhibition with humour,00:02:35.048
- 00:02:35.048

- 00:03:14.922
