JÁN VASILKO A PETER KRÁLIK
Ján Vasilko a Peter Králik z Fakulty umění Technické univerzity v Košicích jsou zakladateli apolitické skupiny Strana železných, zaměřěné na utopickou, romantickou a absurdní činnost. Její všichni dva členové v sekcích Kovo a Agro společně bojují za ochranu práv a svobod starých i nových strojů a polnohospodářských mechanismů. Na výstavě v Galerii Space můžeme vidět průřez jejich tvorbou.

- 00:01:53.046
- when I was as a boy growing up in a village00:01:57.726
- 00:01:57.726
- and I went with my grandpa to an agricultural collective farm00:02:03.400
- 00:02:03.400
