Ambiguity of Structures / Dynamics of Forces: An Exhibition of Neoconstructivist Art at Museum Kampa

This exhibition explores neoconstructivist and reductive art tendencies through works mostly from the 1960s and 1970s by artists associated with Museum Kampa. It highlights both prominent Czechoslovak rational artists and those unjustly neglected, alongside contemporary artists developing similar ideas.

The exhibition 'Ambiguity of Structures / Dynamics of Forces' delves into the neoconstructivist and reductive art movements, focusing on artists connected to the Museum Kampa's collection, primarily from the 1960s and 1970s. It aims to commemorate figures whose works are monitored, mapped, exhibited, or owned by the museum, many of whom were of interest to art patron Meda Mládková and formed the foundation of the Jan and Meda Mládek Foundation's collection. Visitors will encounter key names in Czechoslovak rational art, such as Radek Kratina, Dalibor Chatrný, Stanislav Kolíbal, Jan Kubíček, and Zdeněk Sýkora, alongside unjustly neglected artists like Miroslav Vystrčil, Jindřich Boška, František Dörfl, and Pavol Binder. The exhibition also features contemporary artists like Václav Krůček, Jiří Staněk, Břetislav Malý, and Petr Dub, who innovatively build upon the ideas of their predecessors from groups like Křižovatka and the Concretists’ Club. The display highlights parallels in artistic reasoning and sensitivity, as well as surprising commonalities in the use of materials such as plastics, plexiglass, gypsum, and film, exploring themes like fragility, variability, reflection, and the interplay of regular systems with disruption, solid grids with softness, and real movement with imaginary occurrence.
