Jaro Varga, Catherine Radosa
The concept of the exhibition is based on the ideological convergence of the work of Catherine Radosa and Jaroslav Varga, which consists in revealing the physical and symbolic traces of the past. Both artists examine these relics of bygone times and eras from the perspective of collective memory and the mechanisms of its storage. A vacant lot is an empty space, a gap left by a past situation that can be filled again. The installation Colonne / Révolution captures the constant cycle of the monument in a triple projection. The period of the revolutionary Paris Commune is still a problematic period in France, similar to the period of socialism in our country: it has been and continues to be reinterpreted, tabooed, or marginalized.

The concept of the exhibition stems from a dialogue between historical works presented in 1993 by a group of emerging artists from Ústí nad Labem at two editions of the exhibition NARUŠENÁ ROVNOVÁHA (DISTURBED BALANCE) at the Municipal House in Prague and the Emil Filla Gallery in Ústí nad Labem, and completely new projects by younger artists born in the 1980s, who had the opportunity to experience the atmosphere of Ústí nad Labem, especially during their university studies, and this experience led them to develop their authentic creative attitudes.
