PÁTEK 13.
As we can see in the program of Tranzit, Havránek´s theoretical interest is not closely concerned with the autonomous position of visual art but he always reflects its broader global and political context.
The name Gallery 207 is a very down-to-earth name since it comes from the number of the room at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design where the gallery was located for five years (in October 2013 it moved to room number 405 but its name remained the same). Behind the same door we can find the Studio of intermedia confrontation.
The project Bellevue di Monaco takes place in several buildings in the centre of Munich. The buildings were supposed to be demolished in order to build new luxury apartments there. However, the plan was thwarted by a group of activists and their guerilla reconstruction of one of the flats. Consequently, the migration crisis in 2015 incited the foundation of an official cooperative involving several hundred local residents who rented the houses and turned them into a multifunctional centre.
