Pastviny patří k nejbiodiverznějším místům na Zemi – jsou živými archivy vztahů mezi travinami, bylinami, houbami, hmyzem, ptáky, ovcemi, kozami, lidmi a mnoha dalšími bytostmi. Společně budeme zkoumat pastvinu jako místo setkávání, učení a kolektivního porozumění.

Those who do not know their own history are condemned to repeat it. But is it always a bad thing?

Present Perfect traces the marks of art history on the contemporary art scene, be it in direct dialogue with specific earlier works, or in subtler affinities and echoes that resonate across time. The exhibition’s second unifying element is ceramic clay. A material present at the very origins of artistic practice and very much alive today, currently experiencing a renewed surge of interest not unlike that of a century ago. Older works in fired clay are brought into conversation with contemporary pieces in ceramics and beyond. It is, after all, the nature of clay to endure and to hold, within its surface, the imprints of everything that came before.

Galerie Benedikta Rejta presents two exhibitions František Kyncl – Trommel and Martin Janíček – Sound Projects, which connect visual art with sound, rhythm and spatial experience. The project builds on the exhibition trilogy KRÁSA-HRA-DUŠE and expands the gallery space towards an interactive and multisensory perception of contemporary art.

František Kyncl – Trommel

The exhibition devoted to František Kyncl (1934–2011) presents a cross-section of the work of the important representative of Czech constructive art, who gained international recognition after his emigration to Germany in 1968. The exposition includes structural paintings, drawings, spatial objects and experimental works linking visual art with sound and music.

The core part consists of the so-called phonetic paintings created in 1979–1985 on a rotary drum constructed by the artist Trommel. In them, Kyncl translated rhythm, ambient movements and musical recordings into dynamic layers of colour and gesture. The exhibition also includes an original Trommel drum and authentic sound recordings used in the creation process.

Curator: Monika Immrová

Martin Janíček – Sound Projects

Martin Janíček presents a new interactive installation combining sound objects, experimental music and spatial composition. The artist, who has long been working between acoustic experimentation, sculpture and site-specific installation, works with recycled materials to create original instruments and sound situations that actively engage visitors.

The project refers, among other things, to the experiments of Zdeněk Pešánek and his concept of coloured music. The exhibition will also include a sound projection The Voice of the Landscape, created in collaboration with Pavel Mrkus and inspired by the landscape of the Bohemian Central Highlands.

Curator: Lucie B. Šiklová

The exhibition it's giving real explores the transformation of the image at a time when our natural trust in what we see is being challenged by generative technologies, algorithms, and images capable of convincingly simulating reality. Through painting and object-based works, it presents the image as a dynamic and evolving space in which relationships between perception, personal experience, collective imagination, and reality are continuously formed.

At a moment when many established certainties are being called into question, the image becomes a means of seeking orientation and developing new ways of understanding the world. Through a range of artistic approaches and in dialogue with the work of Václav Boštík, the exhibition demonstrates how, particularly in times of uncertainty, art reconsiders reality, challenges habitual ways of seeing, and searches for new forms of meaning.

In doing so, it raises the question of how images shape our understanding of the world today and how they redefine the boundaries between experience, reality, and fiction.
