Where Europe begins
13 September 2013 - 10 October 2013
Jan Vermouzek, Martin Wagner
Russian border between Asia and Europe is neither apparent nor it is easy to define with camera. Not only in the north applies the rule stating that the one who isn’t able to find its enjoyment in life is to be sentenced to boredom. Industrial southern Ural territories take turns with hundreds of kilometers of deserted steppes. You always find the same cars, similar rural wooden buildings and prefab houses in cities. Although it is far away from Moscow, programs broadcasted from there hit everyone. Symbols of russian sovereignity are most visible in Caucasus territory where separatist tendencies are the strongest.
Martin Wagner has been consistently taking photographs of the most diverse places in Russia and last four years he has been focusing on borderline separating Asia and Europe from Yamal peninsula to the russian border in northern Caucasus. On one of his journeys he was accompanied by photographer Jan Vermouzek. Out of these journeys authors have prepared a suggestive collection of about thirty photographs in which they tried to depict atmosphere of places they visited.

Nospace
26 April 2013 - 20 May 2013
Tereza Fišerová
The installation Nospace was created for a specific gallery space Jiří Putna in Brno. The space, which is usually seen only through a window, is getting – in a special way – just two-dimensional. Due to the fact that the viewer has not the opportunity to be part of the space inside, the perceived picture in the window frame could be just a mere impression of spaciousness behind the glass. Theme of outer corner of the gallery, transferred into a linear „drawing“ to the opposite inner corner, thanks to the perspective shortcuts (real and contained in a drawing) becomes through a direct view of the viewer completely flat.
Melting
8 March 2013 - 25 April 2013
Katarína Hládeková, Ondřej Homola
The main topic of the exhibition is melting water. Water in several states of matter and levels of understanding. Authors created this radically romantic installation using video, photos, sculptures and readymade. The central object inspired by an iceberg captures the whole concept of the exhibition. Like a real iceberg, the ninety percent of the volume is hidden under the surface and what the viewer can see at a glance is the remaining ten percent. Nevertheless, watching closely, the visitor can get more deeply into the installation and get "under the surface". The authors use various forms of media to present what was hidden at the first sight.
Not only photography
1 February 2013 - 28 February 2013
Vilém Reichmann
A poet of photography, Brno intellectual and pacifist, had grown up in the German community in Brno, been forcibly thrown into the hell of war, had passed through it without once fired. His photographs, seemingly simple, are the keys to gates of imagination. Poetic metaphors, whose common element is the imagination animating the inanimate world, often moving to the edge of surrealism. At one era he was creating photomontages that were more graphic than conventional photographs, but later had returned to pure photography when he began creating files and macro photography, which opened up new possibilities for his imaginative pictures.

Photographs deal with transformation and urbanization of landscape in suburbian areas of Brno happening in last decades and subsequent vanishing of animals struggling with lack of natural environment. Chosen animals are brought back by shadows created by installations of found litter. These installations suggest images of past but they also create ilusion of life collected by things that can be usually found here nowadays.

Veronika Přikrylová - object | installation
Veronika's works are typical for its minimalistic language. In her case it does not mean only a play with form or prefabricate. Visually clean works often carry a sort of humour in itself or a hidden meaning reacting on space where they are created. Her work for the gallery is based on an already existing railing, which might appear as useless but actually is absolutely essential for the gallery. Veronika has transformed the railing using material, which became determining in her work. Having used a metal pipe she created an object, which is not only very distinctive but also functional.
