Artlist:Talk enriches the possibilities of this procedural documentation and offers artists a live presentation format. The aim of Artlist:Talk - like Artlist - is to provide the interested public with an understanding of contemporary artistic approaches and expression, which in this case is complemented by the unique perspective of the artists themselves.
Madeleine Andresson
Andersson plays with the rigidity of academic language, which she uses with a degree of hyperbole and projects with a jovial delivery, full of sexual harassment and misogynistic remarks. The author breaks down our boundaries – just as she breaks down the barriers of the sexual undertones and hidden manifestations in the manner of communication of the masculine pop world.
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.
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 exhibition is not only a departure from the established boundaries of the field, but also a demonstration of the possibilities that ceramics offer within contemporary art. The fact that it is ceramic clay, in various forms and shapes, that fills the gallery spaces is not a surprising result of a symposium focused on this material. However, ceramics is not the only means of expression that the exhibiting artists work with in their creations, which is also reflected in their latest works created during their four-week stay in Bechyně.

The tools brought about by technological progress and the network society create an alternative way of establishing communication and building new relationships of interpersonal and interspecies cooperation. However, we suggest listening to the sounds of practices associated with community: rituality, coexistence with the world of plants, animals, and fungi, dissolving the hypersensitivity of the individual "I" in favor of the collective "we," sensitivity to the stories and perspectives of plants and animals, oil, or clouds.
Erika Bornová
Beneath the surface of seemingly ordinary motifs in Erika Bornová's work, there are often hidden disturbing messages—frustration, uncertainty, anxiety, (sweet) painful obsessions—that bring forgotten experiences or suppressed feelings and attitudes back to life. From the outset, an important leitmotif in the artist's work has been a return to the past, whether personal or collective history.
