The exhibition situated in the rutting period offers an attractive view of contemporary visual arts, where grunting bucks , hunting trophies, scenes from the nature and similar motifs still have the ability to communicate with a very current, humorous and ironical language. The selection focuses on younger generation of artists from Slovakia, Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary and Slovenia, but works by middle and older generations are also present. The show has several levels of meaning based on phenomena such as trophy hunting, hunting passion, taxidermy, kitsch, do-it-yourself, man’s relationship to nature, or the relationship between the audience, the artwork, and its creator.
Good hunt!
