Veřejný dům / Public House

Dear friends,
we cordially invite you to the Public House that we open the Autumn season with. 

What expects? 

The House of Garbage, draq queens, will be accompanied throughout the evening. 

 

--------  The exhibition openings
Where Are the Lions? / Ubi sunt leones? 
The exhibition Where Are the Lions? / Ubi sunt leones? looks into a phenomenon of human fascination for overcoming physical and psychological limits through adventures, extreme sports, and explorative expeditions. The title of the exhibition itself, being derived from the cartographic description of unexplored territories (Hic sunt leones) reminds us that it is easier today to climb the highest mountain of the Earth than to find an unexplored place on our planet. 
artists: Filip Dvořák (CZ), Jiří Franta & David Böhm (CZ), Felix Kiessling (DE), Nataša Kokić (RS), Štefan Papčo (SK), Alexander Ponomarev (UA), Macarena Ruiz-Tagle (CL), Vladimír Turner (CZ)
curator: Eva Riebová 

Jaroslav Kyša and Richard Loskot: Tma představ 
Our world seems to be almost completely explored, leaving only a few secrets. But this illusory notion crumbles as we turn our eyes to the night sky. In response to the exhibition, Where are the lions? Ubi sunt leones?, the artists Jaro Kyša and Richard Loskot focus on the universe at their first joint exhibition.
curator: Tereza Jindrová 

-------- Artist talk
Macarena Ruiz-Tagle (CL)

Edit: The artist talk with Alexander Ponomarev is canceled due to the current situation. We plan to have a guided tour with him till the end of the exhibition.

-------- Theater
Performance of Department of Scenography KALD DAMU students
There is not a story but there is a conflict. The body of performer is a boundary that separates the inner and outer spaces. Five visual performers reveal what is happening on the fragile border. What is inside tries to get out, what is outside tries to step in. Performers: Anna Blablová, Tereza Dostálová, Berta Doubková, Kristýna Khinová
