Periférne centrá v Hangári

everydayness public space community

Periférne centrá v Hangári is a retrospective that aims to display a portion of the actions organized by Andrej Poliak and Ján Kostolanský between 2009 and 2011. During this period, the artists organized 14 different gatherings in different Slovak villages that served as an excuse to transform the rural space. The experiment was a mutual and constant dialogue between the artists and villagers that resulted in a creative blast that is now compiled in this exhibition for the public in Bratislava.

Periférne centrá v Hangári

The word "wee" is a Scottish synonym for "little." The title A Wee Bit of Heritage represents an attempt to provide at least a small glimpse into the cultural heritage of the northern Scottish town of Wick, with a population of nearly 9,000. The town used to be a strategic fishing spot and the main port of northern Scotland. However, the situation has changed in recent years. Herring stocks have been depleted for decades, crab fishing is no longer as profitable as it used to be, the nuclear power plant has been shut down, and one of the few things that still operate here and are attractive to tourists are the distillery, the nuclear archive, and The Wick Heritage Museum.

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.
