The Intersection Club’s booth at the Trade Fair Palace is a central feature of both the biennial exhibition and its community life. What awaits you at the Tent?

The Intersection Circle collective regularly organizes group readings of thought-provoking feminist texts here. These gatherings are open to anyone who wants to engage in mutual learning and radical imagination with an open mind. 

We invite you to a collective reading and workshop with the Intersection Circle, facilitated by Zuzana Dalibor, titled Dancing Bodies: Resistance, Joy, and Intertwining.

The dancing body as a space of resistance, imagination, and joyful connection. Let’s explore how we can dance together, intertwine, pulse, and vibrate. We’ll talk, but we’ll also move. Let’s try to let movement act like compost—a place of both decay and transformation, where layers of experiences, emotions, and encounters slowly blend, warm up, and create fertile ground for something new.

Based on the essay by Silvia Federici In Praise of the Dancing Body, we’ll explore the politics of the body and the subversive potential of dance and movement in dialogue with other authors. You don’t need any movement skills or experience—just a desire to play and move according to your own abilities. The workshop is open to people with diverse bodily experiences and body-minds. The text is in English; the workshop will be in Czech. Come discover.

We’re reading: Beyond the Periphery of the Skin – Silvia Federicii, essay: In Praise of the Dancing Body 

The workshop is accessible to people with diverse bodily experiences and body-minds.

The Intersection Circle is an independent, imaginative space for collective learning in Prague. About once every three weeks, it organizes public meetings where participants discuss contemporary feminist literature and experiment with forms of learning without a teacher. The word “kroužek” (circle) expresses an effort to reclaim theory from the ivory towers of academia, while also celebrating childlikeness and play. The word “intersection” highlights the intertwining of various forms of social inequality, which the group seeks to identify during these meetings while also brainstorming ways to collectively challenge these inequalities.

The fourth edition of the biennial In the Matter of Art presents art under the subtitle Necessary Desires, showcasing art that arises from necessity and is shaped by the living conditions of those who create it. The project is co-curated by Jaroslava Tomanová, Jakub Gawkowski, and František Fekete. The exhibition and program will be accessible free of charge for the entire duration of the event. The Biennial consists of a three-month exhibition, a program of events, and long-term activities that explore expressions of artistic and civic resilience, solidarity, and collective practice. The main exhibition runs from June 12 to September 13, 2026, at the National Gallery in Prague—the Trade Fair Palace—and GAMPA—the Pardubice City Gallery. The third of the main venues, the Tusculum Prague art center, presents long-term community activities that extend beyond the three-month duration of the exhibition.
