The exhibition project ANDROS delves into how contemporary Central European art engages with the male body as a subject of doubt, exploration, and redefinition. In a society where traditional gender roles are being re-evaluated, the male form becomes a canvas for existential questions about identity. This group exhibition traces these themes within a regional context, showcasing works by artists from Germany, Austria, and the Visegrad countries, as well as Czech artists. Curated by writer Vratislav Maňák, the exhibition builds upon his conceptual explorations from his book 'With Wittgenstein in a Gay Sauna'. Maňák, an award-winning Czech writer and literary historian, uses the exhibition to further develop his discourse on intimacy, memory, and the conditions of existence in Central Europe, presenting art that grapples with the complexities of masculinity today.
The exhibition opening on September 3, 2026, at 7 p.m. has free admission. General admission information can be found via the provided ticket information link. The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday, closed on Mondays.
