About
The exhibition loosely continues with the Prague City Gallery’s successful project Unsettled Figure. Expression in Czech Sculpture 1880–1914, which was acknowledged as “The Group Exhibition of the Year 2016”. Medium: Figure is the curator’s selection of Czech and Slovak artists pursuing the subject of figure at present. This time, it is not limited to classical sculptural concept but instead, follows figure as a medium to which artists can relate themselves via various historical as well as personal references – from Greek canonical representation as the point of departure to working with video, film and photography and, finally, to installation and emptying corporeality.
