REPORT
The lecture by the internationally known Ukrainian artist Nikita Kadan at the Academy of Fine Arts was introduced and accompanied by a debate with the Russianist and semiotician Tomáš Glanc. Kadan lives and works in Kiev. He works with various media, including installation, sculpture, painting and collage.
Alex constructs and, in turn, deconstructs a fluid identity that defines itself through ephemeral contributions, the power and anxiety inherent in the possibility of breaking down the boundaries between subject and object. Bold yet light-hearted, we trust the work unreservedly for its emotion and the vulnerability of the artist’s personal input.
We can loosely understand the term intermezzo as a planned activity or pause deliberately "inserted" into life or work and associated, for example, with the need for rest, the necessity of transformation, a change of direction, and an escape from the rut of everyday life, everyday life, overcoming feelings of unfulfillment, the desire to help, move forward in life, or get involved in something new.
