THE CARGO PROJECT – Ondrej Horak, Jan Horak, Pavel Sterec, Maria Cavina, Monika Sybolova
Proiectul Cargo isi propune sa prezinte intr-o maniera neconventionala arta ceheasca contemporana, pe plan international. Cei 15 artisti cehi selectionati in cadrul acestui proiect vor realiza proiecte site-specific in orase ca Budapesta, Bucuresti, Sofia si Moscova. Interventii urbane inspirate din specificul local vor colora pentru cateva saptamani locatii neconventionale in acestor orase. Proiectul acesta este o experienta interesanta si pentru localnici care vor fi invitati sa descopere locuri familiare puse intr-un nou context.
ENGLISH The aim and focus of the international “Cargo” project is to present contemporary Czech art in unconventional settings of foreign cities. The projects are site-specific and site-inspired. The artists react to the very specific urban life, the structure of the city and its cultural and social differences. The Cargo project is at the same time an interesting experience for the locals as they see a familiar space in new context.
Cargo involves about 15 Czech contemporary artists who will be distributed throughout four cities – Buda¬pest, Bucharest, Sofia and Moscow.
CARGO IN BUCHAREST
Un lucru interesant la grupul de artisti care va crea si expune la Bucuresti este intinderea pe mai multe generatii – de la artisti consacrati, la tanara generatie si chiar studenti. In plus, grupului de artisti cehi li se alatura si 5 artisti romani ce lucreaza cu diferite media: Daniel Alexandru, Alexandru Dumitru, Raluca Preda, Stefan Dinu si Dani Macovei aka Zanga. Intentia curatoriala a fost de a aduna artisti cu diferite viziuni artistice, ce pot crea instalatii sau interventii site-specific. 6 locatii neconventionale vor deveni pentru o saptamana locul de creatie a 12 artisti. Pentru 2 zile veti putea vedea in fiecare locatie work-in-progress-uri (5+6 octombrie). Pe 7 ne strangem cu totii la Atelier 35 pentru prezentarea proiectului si proiectia de video-art ceh, iar apoi, urmatoarele 2 zile (8+9 octombrie), proiectele finale pot fi vizitate in locatiile in care au fost create.
The choice of artists for this project is also notable for its span across several generations – from established Czech artists to respect¬ed artists of the younger generation and even to university students. The curators addressed artists that encompass many different artistic activities and can cope with demanding spaces.
Silvie Brodi (1979) is completing her studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague (AVU), where she excelled mainly in her painting skills. However her approach is also interdisciplinary, much like the one of Jana Kochankova (1979). Eva Jiricka (1979) works with subtle shifts of space – a reaction to quotidian. She is also interested in videoart, just like Faculty of Fine Arts in Brno student, Tereza Sochorova (1982). Lenka Vitkova (1975) links her visual artwork (painting, positioning painting in space) with significant curatorship activity – she provided curatorship to many enterprises and maintains a Gallery 36. Tomas Dzadon (1981) represents a pronounced group of Slovak authors living and working in the Czech Republic. His spatial interventions and installations brought him a number of awards and he is currently on abroad on a scholarship. Vladimir Skrepl (1955) is one of the best known Czech artists, who has been on the Czech art scene since the second half of the 1980’s.
Contemporary Czech videoart will also be presented in Atelier 35, as composed by AVU student Viktor Takac.
