HE WHO LAUGHS. Art on the World of Art + bonus Death in Coal (1998) by V\u00edt Soukup<\/p>\n

\"Plak\u00e1t<\/a><\/p>\n

The evening included the screening of a \u201cmeta\u201d video, a work of art examining the art world and winding its way through the terrain circumscribed by art history. The commentary on a well known environment and the dialogue with \u201cpredecessors\u201d by means of quotation or the appropriation of their works sometimes comes across as a soliloquy, at other times like a profound meditation. Artists come to terms with the burden of the canon through sarcastic comments, recipes for success, and reflections upon real-life experience. They mythify themselves or, on the contrary, ironise the tortuous nature of their own ambitions. It is impossible to say who has the last laugh and who laughs the most.<\/p>\n

The painter V\u00edt Soukup (1971\u20132007) was also interested in the moving picture. He shot a series of films characterised by exaggeration. In order to recount seemingly banal stories he used the methods of B-movies and silent American slapstick comedies. The screening is a tribute to an important figure in Czech art at the turn of the millennium. The digitalised films by V\u00edt Soukup are from the video archive of the AVU Research Centre for a VIDA DVD being prepared. This was shown at a festival of contemporary art entitled The Beginnings of the Century in Public Space (curated by Denisa V\u00e1clavov\u00e1) as part of the exhibition The Beginnings of the Century at the West Bohemia Gallery in Plze\u0148 (curated by Pavl\u00edna Morganov\u00e1).<\/p>\n

Video by Pavla Gajdo\u0161\u00edkov\u00e1 1147 address from 2010<\/p><\/div>\n

We all need to define our own place in the world and to demarcate our own space. By organising chaos and defining reference points to which we relate and that are the measure of things, we create our own identity. To a large degree architecture defines our lived space. Contemporary artists address architecture head on or see it as a natural part of their own space and the existential experience thereof.<\/p>\n
