Face To Face

The exhibition Face To Face was created without any complex intellectual calculuses. SPZ Gallery carries on with its project that an addressed artist invites a guest. Ondřej Brody – a husband of Jitka Mikulicová responded to her painting called Devil with his first sculpture marked on the wall by himself. Their common resignation to the concept and (un) adaptibility of the installation stress the work of Jitka Mikulicová as a specific and descriptive painting.

Face To Face
Artistic practice of Jindřiška Jabůrková is interdisciplinary, includes installation, creation of objects, sometimes photography and video or performance. Her fascination is with the processes of transformation of matter, whether of human or natural origin. She is interested in the relationship between the human subject and nature, the relationship of man to the material world, sometimes deepened by the spiritual thoughts.
For over a century, the factory in Střekov has influenced the structure of the city and the quality of life of its inhabitants. During the period of industrial development, Johann Schicht and his descendants built civic amenities in the city – a health center, spas, nurseries, a library, and residential buildings for their workers. After the company was nationalized, production continued and continued to employ a large number of newly settled residents. The national company Setuza also brought its employees together and enabled them to participate in "extracurricular activities," primarily in events organized by the Revolutionary Trade Union Movement, which included the organization of International Women's Day celebrations, St. Nicholas Day gifts, and children's camps.
