Curatorial context

The exhibition "Expanding Our Collection — Acquisitions 2013–2025" presents a substantial body of work acquired by the Prague City Gallery during a period of significant growth, adding 2,366 pieces to its holdings. This expansion allows for a more comprehensive understanding of artistic developments, from established artists to those emerging on the contemporary scene. The exhibition, curated by Magdalena Juříková, spans a wide array of artistic media, including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, video, spatial installations, and conceptual art. This extensive collection effort reflects the gallery's strategic focus on experimental art from the 1960s and 1970s, the generation of artists from the 1990s, and the current contemporary scene, mapped through projects like "Start Up" and thematic exhibitions. Notably, the gallery became a pioneer among public institutions in collecting moving images in 2013. This initiative has allowed GHMP to systematically cover the latter half of the 20th century and the first quarter of the 21st century, offering a rich testament to the movements and changes within the art world.
