The students of the bizarre creature that is known as the Visual Arts graduate program at the academy of Art, Architecture, and Design in Prague, have been working hard over the past year to bring you this exhibition, and very much hope you will attend. Expect candies and taxis and good causes. Expect trash-bags and glasses of wine. We'll be expecting you.

Stuff That Doesn't Suck 02.05-06.05

Saturday 02:  Church of Confidence (de), The Grit (uk), Pipes & Pints (cz/us) @ Exit Chmelnice (20:00)

Founded in Berlin in 1995, Church Of Confidence combined Punk and Rock’n’Roll, just to find out, that with this mixture they were way ahead of their time.
With their latest album “Takin Over”, they continued to combine late 70’s Punk Rock, early 70’s Glam-Rock and the wild energy of their 50’s Rock’n’Roll heroes, creating their own style, which as the album title implies relates the most important decades of underground rock: The Clash meet The Slade meet Gene Vincent. Pipes and Pints is more than a band. It’s a concept; Punk-rock and Highland bagpipes!
Their live act is an ass-kicking experience that will certainly lift up your mood and make your heads bang without even realizing it.
 


Health (us), Fiat Eno (cz) @ 007 (20:00) promoted by A.M. 180 Collective and Bohemian Like You

Health is an experimental band consisting of four members including Benjamin Jared Miller, Jake Duzsik, John Famiglietti, and Jupiter Keyes. All are from different cities including Seattle, San Diego, and Los Angeles, but their current home base is Los Angeles. Jake met Jupiter in college. John met Jake in a guitar store. Jared was drawn to the fold by way of Internet courtship. The band is oftentimes considered noise rock, but besides having some slight elements of the genre, they don’t fit the sound of other, current bands included in the noise rock scene, due to them mixing such genres as dance and electronica.

The Chelsea Hotel has been always sought by people at the margin of official streams, musicians, visual artists, poets and photographers, so its history is very rich in this sense. However, the lecture will focus on the period from the 1950s up to the present, when it accommodates members of bands such as The Velvet Underground, Frank Zappa and his Mothers Of Invention, Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Sex Pistols and related artists. The lecture will be accompanied by music recordings.

ABOUT HIM:

Sergey Bardadim, whose nickname is "George", is a Russian tattoo artist.

He did his first tattoo at age 17, using an ordinary needle and thread, a primitive tattoo method used in Russia back then. This was an experiment rather than the beginning of his career, but it bore fruit later on.

Drugs, Guns, and Gauguin

By Natasha Kirshina
 

    Masked villains stealing ancient masterpieces for their Sicilian mafia boss...is this the image an "art crime" inspires in your mind? Or perhaps it's a collage of headline-smashing thefts - like the recent disappearance of Andy Warhol’s Athletes silk-screens from a museum in California. But is that really the whole range of art crime’s colours or just its varnished surface?

Street art is the expression of the creativity of the street, responding spontaneously to the urban space and interacting well with people. The poster, sticker, stencil, painting, mosaic, installation ... no mode of expression is foreign to him. In the case of the Štěpánská Street / art, this principle is reversed: from the street artists are turning inside a space: that of the French Institute, where they will work together for nearly a week.

'Against Hatred': An interpretation of the past moving towards the future

 

 

 


 

'1st September 1939' is the date on which the story could have been changed forever, in which humanity could have become lost in the darkness of Nazism, intolerance, radicalization, extermination and hatred. Fortunately, the joint effort of many nations stopped this impending night, but the conflict left a deep wound that even now remains gaping. Exhibits such as 'Against Hatred' can help heal the wound.

Against the grain

Original article by Mimi Fronczak Rogers, Prague Post online

Four artists who buck the tide of European tradition.

An undercurrent typically flows in the opposite direction of surface currents, so the selection of two Czech and two German artists by Petr Nedoma for Galerie Rudolfinum's show "Undercurrent" can be seen as an attempt to showcase work that in some way goes against the grain of tradition, and the mainstream of contemporary art. It also hints at the pull these counter-tides might have on prevailing contemporary currents, given the right conditions.

Interview with Artists - World Bodypainting Festival

In preparation for the party at the 15th century Burg Sommeregg Castle during the weeklong body painting festival in Seeboden, Austria, we had the possibility to become personally adorned with dazzling colors. We were intrigued as to how these artists practise their art and manage to survive. So in the hopes of having the experience of becoming ambulant art pieces, we asked around and bartered an interview for a painting. We were lucky to come to an agreement with Marcel Klaus’s team of Bergheim, Germany. I had to abandon my typically prude nature and strip down to my little short shorts to be air brushed by the artist. With the help of Katerine Hoeper, assistant and seemingly right hand girl, I had the privilege of conducting a quick interview:
