Night Club Beauty and the Beast
The film shows the house of Čestmír Suška and Naďa Rawová, where one of the first unofficial symposiums took place in July 1980 and which was soon followed by others (Netvořice 81, Mutějovice 83 and others). This led to a series of Confrontations (1984–1987) – exhibitions of the youngest generation of artists.
In the event projected here worked Jiří Černický with the heat effect and a motif of reflection. He used the Iron – “a female” appliance touching intimate garments but at the same time a „male“ impersonal tool used as a mirror and a brush. He stepped back from the camera to the place where a fata morgana originated due to the thermal inversion.
