The exhibition is concerned with contemplative pieces that exist in themselves as unfolding inquiries, probes that fluidly transition from the quotidian to the exceptional utilizing technical means as a virtual haptic pathway inviting us to delve deeper, to consider and reconsider.
The artistic team is meeting in the underground space to explore the psychoacoustic attributes of sound, and the physical limits and resonance properties of the human body; the use of music during rituals and religious ceremonies, and the possibility of connecting occultism, music, and sound as a means of communication, meditation and spiritual work.
The choir of voices that is at times consonant and at times dissonant seeks know-how for undermining the bold narratives that revolve around heroic, autonomous figures who exert extraordinary power to overcome obstacles. Where does the saying about the events which make us stronger unless they kill us come from, and what is the actual meaning of the word “stronger” anyway?
The long life of industrial products, their slow decomposition and their subsequent journey into the earth - with all this, the artist gives nature and geological time a far more optimistic perspective than we as humans can attribute to ourselves. We now know that the garbage patch in the Pacific Ocean has exceeded the size of Texas and is approaching the size of all of North America.
These two exhibitions share a certain local specificity. The Screenopolis exhibition attempts to reflect certain local themes through contemporary art, while Marian Palla's exhibition presents a locally based artist and his work. At the same time, there is a certain connection between the authors of these two exhibitions in that both subscribe to conceptual thinking.
By imitating the gestures of objects and things that are already in the gallery space; by slowing down, pausing, lingering, alighting, unwinding... through these actions we can escape the entrenched trajectories we found ourselves on in the morning, rid ourselves momentarily of what we have already become, so that we can lose ourselves in thoughts of what we might be.
We can loosely understand the term intermezzo as a planned activity or pause deliberately "inserted" into life or work and associated, for example, with the need for rest, the necessity of transformation, a change of direction, and an escape from the rut of everyday life, everyday life, overcoming feelings of unfulfillment, the desire to help, move forward in life, or get involved in something new.
The exhibition becomes an environment of matter itself, not only of space, but also of individual objects that we glimpse as they rest. Both authors complement each other perfectly in their work. Neither is dominant, neither is lost. Interest arises in ordinary, insignificant things that are materially interconnected. The material is important here. It forms the main essence of the entire content of the exhibition.
Throughout his life, Chalupecký promoted and defended new artistic trends and was interested in general questions of art, especially the meaning of art in modern society. He was a defender of art in connection with life. In today's terms, we could perhaps use the term activist or engaged art. He did not believe in the purely aesthetic function of art and culture in general.
