- This exhibition is related to metaphors of strength00:00:06.259
- 00:00:06.259
- and the ability or disability to use strength,00:00:13.293
- 00:00:13.293
- and it also touches upon current issues00:00:20.537
- 00:00:20.537
- related to politics and the entire society.00:00:24.012
- 00:00:24.012
- We intentionally used material which is temporal,00:00:26.913
- 00:00:26.913
- which cannot stay compact or hold firm form,00:00:34.247
- 00:00:34.247
- but we used it to model objects which should give the impression of firmness.00:00:41.066
- 00:00:41.066
- Behind us there are two live statues00:00:46.804
- 00:00:46.804
- that support this metaphor of firmness, proportion and size,00:00:51.839
- 00:00:51.839
- something me and Ondřej always wanted to work with.00:00:58.102
- 00:00:58.102
- As you can see here the most significant medium for us is the drawing.00:01:02.855
- 00:01:02.855
- This time we tried to handle it in a kind of global way,00:01:13.247
- 00:01:13.247
- so it´s important not to see the exhibits just as drawings00:01:21.722
- 00:01:21.722
- or sculptures,00:01:25.071
- 00:01:25.071
- it all forms just one art work00:01:27.449
- 00:01:27.449
- and it is up to the viewer how he´s going to perceive it,00:01:30.690
- 00:01:30.690
- which part he´s going to respond to,00:01:34.396
- 00:01:34.396
- finding a key to understanding it.00:01:37.733
- 00:01:37.733
- That´s why the exhibited works have no names00:01:40.337
- 00:01:40.337
- because it is supposed to be seen as one whole with one name,00:01:43.371
- 00:01:43.371
- and this is the way the viewer should perceive it.00:01:50.016
- 00:01:50.016
- A complete unity.00:01:57.910
- 00:01:57.910
- That´s right.00:01:58.792
- 00:01:58.792
- The visitor is welcomed at the entrance by bars00:02:00.618
- 00:02:00.618
- which are no longer firm, which are just an imitation of strength.00:02:06.435
