installation view of “intimacy, commitment, passion”
Libuše Jarcovjáková, Běla Kolářová, Karel Malich, Zorka Ságlová a Květa Válová
curated by Miloslav Vorlíček
intimacy, commitment, passion, exhibition brings together artworks from Libuše Jarcovjáková, Běla Kolářová, Karel Malich, Zorka Ságlová, and Květa Válová. Through their distinct visual languages, the artists invite us into realms where vulnerability meets strength, where private becomes political.
Jarcovjáková's raw photographic narratives capture fleeting moments of authentic connection in Prague's underground scenes, while Kolářová transforms everyday objects into intricate compositions that reveal the poetry hidden within the mundane. Malich's ethereal wire sculptures map invisible energies and spiritual dimensions, creating cosmic landscapes that resonate with inner emotional states. The exhibition continues with Ságlová's groundbreaking textile works and installations, which reclaim traditionally feminine crafts as vehicles for conceptual exploration. Válová's powerful, expressive paintings, with their monumental figures embodying both fragility and resilience, round out this dialogue.
Together, these artists demonstrate how true creative vision requires absolute commitment to one's craft, authentic expression, and pursuing art that challenges rather than comforts. Their works, from the 1960s to the early 2000s, reveal intimate universes where passion drives artistic innovation and personal experience becomes universal. What emerges is a compelling testament to art's transformative power when creators surrender entirely to their unique vision, allowing us to experience the world through their extraordinary perspectives.
