Monument I.

For a long time, I didn't know what to write about this exhibition. It has no theme, the exhibiting artists have nothing in common, and their selection is purely subjective—I selfishly decided based solely on which paintings I personally found remarkable. It was only yesterday in my studio that one of the artists told me about a curator who reproached her for not providing any key to her paintings.
Michal Novotný
Michal Novotný is a curator of contemporary art, who is known for his group exhibitions focusing on a particular theme, which is a genre quite difficult to prepare and not very common on the Czech art scene. The question which arises is about the relationship between individual works of art and the topic of the exhibition which they are incorporated in.
