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.

In the long term the author focuses on several related topics: live art and the possibilities of its mediation; communities emerging around artistic activities of selected artists and through their work; she is interested in motives and personal memories of artists; she focuses on overlooked or difficult to grasp aspects of local cultural history, mostly in Moravia during the normalization era.

In this video Artyčok.TV examines Artbanka with a critical eye. Artbanka defines itself as being a non-profit project that helps young artists to get their foot in the door of this competitve art world. Under closer inspection one discovers the project is not as charitable as it first appears. After purchasing young Czech and Slovak artists' work, Artbanka rents or lends the work to individuals and companies. Artbanka has closely colaborated with City Gallery Prague, and this video scrutinises the two institutions' relationship through a series of interviews that highlights their somewhat sketchy partnership.
