EDITORIAL

The Czech art scene has its own limitations, which have yet to be dissolved, and the desire or ability to dissolve them is still lacking. The best way to discover this is to go abroad and represent the domestic culture; all it takes is to be asked a few question by people who think you know more about it than they do. Near the end of November I went to Berlin with the intention of writing about…

	WAS IST KUNST (INTERVIEW WITH RAŠA TODOSIJEVIĆ)
	"In the Serbian art scene there is no one quite like Raša Todosijević. Since the 1970s he has worked as an autonomous being, in spite of all the indifference, malediction and even success he has received. His critical position towards nationalism and violence during the dissolution of Yugoslavia only confirmed his reputation. Serbian theoretician Zoran Erić questioned him about the past and…

	JUSTICE IN THE ARMS OF THE YELLOW PIERROT
	"The 8th Biennial in Istanbul, Sept. 18 – Nov. 16, 2003 A reasonable multicultural show — that’s how the biennial in Istanbul could be characterized. Last year the Turkish organizers requested American curator Dan Cameron to put on the biggest exhibition in the country. This employee of New York’s New Museum of Contemporary Art demonstrated to the skeptics of international monster actions…

	PECULIARITIES OF THE NATIONAL HUNT
	"The invitation to Finland came at just the right time. The gloomy days at the end of November writing grants and solving operational problems in the gallery provided me with a much needed vision for a lighter horizon. The goal of my four-day trip was to choose artists for an exhibition of contemporary Finnish art and to take the first steps towards ensuring long-term cooperation on both sides. I…

	THIS IS MY SOUND
	"There are words that sound as if they come from old legends. One is afraid to use them. To write them. To pronounce them. Nor is it very clear exactly what they mean today. But then, in an effort to find the term that expresses what you feel in the most precise way, express what you really want to describe, sometimes they just appear in your head. Earnestness, for example.Earnest — does it mean…

Pověsti o těžkých časech na trhu s uměním jsou opět velmi přehnané...

Letošní 50. ročník Art Basel přilákal celkem 93 000 návštěvníků a sběratelů z 80 zemí světa. 290 prémiových galerií představilo umělecká díla od počátku 20. století až po současnost. Hlavní sektor přehlídky, tradičně v prvním patře výstavního prostoru, představil 232 předních galerií z celého světa nabízející umění nejvyšší kvality. Veletrh ukázal vzestupný trend prodeje prostřednictvím galerií jak soukromým sbírkám, tak i institucím. Kromě hlavního veletrhu stály za návštěvu i ty přidružené: Volta, Liste a Photo Basel, k tomu doprovodné programy a výstavy v místních institucích, které kvalitou daleko přesahují hranice města tj. Kunsthalle Basel, Kunstmuseum, Tinguely muzeum nebo Fondation Beyeler.
