The spontaneous exhibiting intervention in the foyer of Stredoslovenská galéria (Central Slovak Gallery)reacts to the social situation happening during the recent weeks. It´s a respond to the growing dissatisfaction of people in the society, which revolted against corrupted socialist state 24 years ago, but the society didn´t have any real vision, so it has just established assumed model of capital and parliamentary consensus, where the state aparatus acts as a deputy for oligarchy and sacrifies the general privatization of the public. The goal of the little exhibiting intervention „1848“ is by means of particular works of art to put into the clear context simplified relationships regarding the society from which we require to be solidaristic and egalitarian society.
The themes reflecting the issue: the concept of national state; nationalism; treating of socially weak; manipulating the middle class, protest, poverty; new idea.

1848
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 lecture by the internationally known Ukrainian artist Nikita Kadan at the Academy of Fine Arts was introduced and accompanied by a debate with the Russianist and semiotician Tomáš Glanc. Kadan lives and works in Kiev. He works with various media, including installation, sculpture, painting and collage.
