Without a Beginning, Without an End: In Honour of Ale拧 Vesel媒
Museum Kampa has decided to hold an exhibition in honour of this very important Czech artist, who very regretfully passed away in December of 2015.
With its title, the exhibition symbolically connects a series of exhibitions that Ale拧 Vesel媒 prepared last autumn to celebrate his eightieth birthday. Shown was a selection of works from the early 1960鈥榮 to the present day, which in brief presented works that belong to the artist's vast creation, which is substantial and approaches the thematic range and depth of his philosophically oriented art.
Most of the works to be presented at this exhibition will be from Museum Kampa鈥檚 collection (structural graphics of the 1960s鈥�, monumental expressive paintings from 1985, drawings, the object titled Chair and assemblages), this chosen selection will be enriched by of a set of four interconnected structures with a mirror like surface from 2012, that Ale拧 Vesel媒 created at a symposium in Mikulov and that has not been exhibited in Prague. The exhibition will be accompanied by excerpts from the artist's texts, which form an integral part of his work. The chosen writings are those that relate to the themes of some works, which explain to the visitor the artist鈥檚 focus and reflection. The exhibition is being prepared by Mahulena Ne拧lehov谩 from the Institute of Art History, Academy of Sciences and Ale拧 Vesel媒鈥檚 assistant Alena Bartkov谩.
