Opening of the exhibitions: Smoke and Mirrors + Heroes' Prop Room

After the program, we will be happy to welcome you to the after party, which will take place at Pink Whale.

The intergenerational group exhibition Smoke & Mirrors ↗ critically explores current rupture in the political interpretation of the world. The hegemonic and ideological shifts in public discourse that we are experiencing in Slovakia extend beyond the borders of nation states are part of a global pattern. They are transforming the cultural, social, and economic reality that is moving away from democratic principles towards authoritarian regimes and growing inequality. The exhibition employs systematic analysis to contribute to the discussion around the causes of changing social conditions and the prospects for new alliances and opportunities for social reconciliation.

The exhibition ↗ presents the results of long-term artistic research focused on former and contemporary military spaces in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. Through a complex, multimedia installation of a series of videos, objects, and images, Radovan Čerevka reflects on and relates transformations of the functions, uses, and perceptions of a particular cultural landscape.
