Mutually: Archives of non-institutionalized culture of the 1970s and 1890s in Czechoslovakia

The aim of the exhibition is to present selected fragments of personal archives of the artists, active at the turn of the 1970s and 1980s in socialist Czechoslovakia, such as activities of the informal groups and interest based communities that had been organized outside the state-run social structures. Many ephemeral works have been preserved only in documentation and provide an evidence of networks existing within the communities, on which these works were aimed and in which they resonated. Not attempting for a comprehensive picture of contemporary events, the exhibition focuses on selected personal archives, as their importance in the current exhibition practices is either lost or poorly captured.
