Exhibition Opening: Fragments of Other Knowledge
You are welcome to join us this Good Thursday at the Marshall House for the opening of the exhibition Fragments of Other Knowledge, in the Living Art Museum, March 26th at 17—20.
About the Exhibition
The exhibition Fragments of Other Knowledge summarizes a three-year research and exhibition project called Other Knowledge realized at the MeetFactory Gallery in Prague, Czech Republic. It presents a curatorial selection by Tereza Jindrová and Eva B. Riebová and focuses on distinctive works that were part of one of the ten exhibitions from the series Other Knowledge.
Specific themes addressed in the exhibitions include spirituality; altered states of consciousness and drugs; wisdom associated with nature and traditional communities; "normality" and institutionalization; cognition and experience mediated by the body; hand craft and slow lifestyle connected with it; the worldview of people with sensory or physical disabilities; discovery and adventure; artificial intelligence; and last but not least, artistic research itself as a unique form of knowledge.
The exhibition at the Living Art Museum, comes out of a collaboration with Art Without Borders, brings together all these different themes in one place. It presents the works of mainly Czech artists, many of whom were commissioned directly by MeetFactory Gallery, and this selection is supplemented by several works of Icelandic artists who have not been part of the exhibitions held so far, but resonate very well with the themes raised and add new layers of meaning.
Supported by the peoples of Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through the EEA Grants and the Ministry of Culture of Czech Republic.
