Walk three times around the mountain and the night will be yours
Marie Hladíková and Anders Grönlien draw inspiration from personal mythology in the centre of which are great issues such as love, beauty, death, good, evil,… Their art speaks about undercurrents of (not only) human mind but also about their opposites – a romantic bedazzlement by the nature and imagination. The exhibition in Chodovská tvrz is the second gallery project they have worked on together. Through their collective installation, the viewers can expect nothing less dramatic than a walk from day to night, light to gloom, paradise to hell and maybe vice versa.
