Spaces of Narration

The idea of the exhibition is based on certain common tendencies in number of artworks, that stand on the edge of installation art, processional remnants and consideration of narrative structures. The viewer here becomes the active junction, the reader of a fragmentary text, collecting signs to create his own meaningful construction. The artwork itself, or the structure of signs thus created becomes the plot scene – standing between text narration and theater mimesis.

Spaces of Narration
I decided to go for the last option, making use of my present position of an art teacher, and so I decided to introduce works of our students from the Video studio. I hope the videos do not show any traces of my influence and I believe this will remain true also in the future.
An important topic in Lucie Svobodová's recent work is also the technical obsolescence of audiovisual media and formats, which is also led to her revision of her older works. The resulting reconstructions that Svobodová creates with the help of new technologies, not only touch the current question of archiving related works, but also open a discussion about the extent to which the pioneering works of Czech animation and video art are interesting for today's wider audience.
