Born in 1976, Kvetán studied (1995-1996) at the Intermedia Studio of Free Creativity with professor Juraj Bartusz. He is currently studying at Open Studio with professor Daniel Fischer at the Fine Arts College in Bratislava, Slovakia, and at the Multimedia-Performance-Video department with professor Keiko Sei at the Fine Arts Faculty VUT in Brno, Czech Republic.

Marek Kvetán’s computer being confronts the imperfection of perceiving what is real.

Borrowing heavily from fairy tales, fables and science fiction, the art of Magda Tóthová revolves around modern utopias and social models and their failures.
