The loss of local ownership also impacted the names of newly established stadia - for example, Arsenal moved to the newly built Emirates Stadium in 2006, sponsored by the airline of the same name. Manchester City resides at the Etihad Stadium, again sponsored by the airline of the same name, which in 2011 caused the older stadium owned by the city of Manchester to be renamed. Ties with the capital of Arab oil monarchies gradually became a common part of club football in England.

Petr Skala

Petr Skala
His original creative processes applied to the then typical 16mm film (e.g. scratching, engraving, painting and application of chemical agents) were in fact close not only to foreign hand-made film but also to gestic painting and the material-orientated Art Informel.

Sweep around your own front door

Jiří Žák

Words that become popular in the world of art often quickly fall from one side to the other. The words alone are not to blame. Some of them have an imaginative power which surpasses their real meaning. They become an incantation whose weight of imagination tilts the words over the edge of depletion. Decolonisation is one of them.

Road to Qatar

Samuel Velebný
The transformation of football as such has been continuously running since its inception in Britain in the second half of the 19th century. What started as a community activity associated with locality, corporeality and grass very quickly acquired a parallel of the commodity branch, which has gained worldwide importance due to its distribution through the media image.

Anton Vidokle - Institute of the Cosmos

Anton Vidokle
Anton Vidokle is the type of artist who might not seem to be a very prolific author, at least not in the classical, material sense of art production. Vidokle is interested in art as a means to learn as much as possible about the world we live in, to explore it.

The Design of the Anthropocene

David Přílučík
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, architecture and design saw the culmination of an approach that claimed that artificially designed systems could mimic natural systems and together create symbiotic assemblages enabling human civilisation to function on Earth. But the paradigm of control has since been shaken to its foundations, and if we are still trying to revive it, it is because we haven’t yet managed to name a new one. The Design of the Anthropocene could be the practical fulfilment of these unnamed paradigms.

APART collective

Ema Hesterová, Peter Sit, Andrej Žabkay + 2 more
The nature of the bond uniting these individuals - two women and three men - is not clear at first: are they friends, colleagues, collaborators? Or comrades and comrades-in-arms? Do we dare to claim this designation today without pejorative or parodic intent? Comrade literally means “a fellow in a common cause”. But what is that cause?

Pro(s)thetic Dialogues

Alexandra Morales, Georgij Bagdasarov
Pro(s)thetic dialogues is more like a recording of a theatre performance playing out on a computer desktop. Here the human operator creates the conditions for exploring the performativity of a philosophical zombie pieced together from neural networks.

"I am the future and the past, a loophole in time and space, I am the essence of everything matter […] You can't escape me, I'm driven by forces that are here billions of times longer than you, dear” says dust in Annetta Mona Chişa's video Tell Me, Dust, about your Complicated Matter. Inanimate materials, such as dust particles, make it difficult by its very nature, to have a common understanding of the world, or even the whole universe.

Architecture of coexistence: VinziRast-mittendrin

Karolína Kripnerová, Janek Rous, Vojtěch Sigmund
They met in 2009 during student riots where the space of an occupied university building provided shelter for both protesting students and the homeless. The necessary dialogue and negotiations that emerged between the overnighters and the protesters led to a simple revelation: the homeless and students can work on their goals together.

Mary Maggic (b. Los Angeles, 1991) is a non-binary artist working at the intersection of cultural discourse, body and gender politics and ecological alienations.

Using biohacking and public amateurism as a critical practice of care, Maggic investigates the micro-performativity of hormones and works collaboratively to demystify their molecular colonization. Purity is not an option!

Open Source Estrogen!

Mary Maggic
How do bodies queer at the molecular level? How is this queering inextricably tied to industrial capitalism? And is there a way out of capitalist ruins, one that has been further exacerbated by the pandemic?

Tomáš Knoflíček

Nikola Brabcová
Although Tomáš Knoflíček is an art historian specializing in Medieval art and teaches at the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Ostrava, he is also well-known for his versatile projects dealing with contemporary art and music. He is primarily concerned with the role of art in society, above all its communication potential in public space.

The relationship of man towards land has always been a significant mover of the organization of social, cultural and spiritual life. Land is inseparably linked with our basic needs, it is the source of our nourishment, offers us a safe home and a space for the merger with the cycle of nature. Despite all this we have managed to bring this relationship to the verge of a crisis full of misunderstandings, visible in all spheres of our coexistence.
