POSTPONED | Pavel Novotný: To the Machines! (analog-percussive art performance)

› Fri 24/6 17:00

Nikola Brabcová invites you to the open artist's studio Water Lily Tea. The Water Lily Tea in GAMPA will be open every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 5pm to 7pm, June 7–30, 2022. The studio emphasizes the experience and the artistic process. Self-creation becomes therapy and treatment, alleviates anxieties, opens the way to change stereotypes, expands one's own possibilities, harmonizes. Come to see, experiment for a while or visit it more often. Alone, with you children or with friends.

Wander along the river. Walking with the stream or heading against it? Flow with time or going backwards?

Meet with Habima Fuchs on the day of the summer solstice near the city by the open fire (see the map). Opportunity to have a rest in nature, but also to symbolically honor the element providing just like the sun light and warmth. The artist will create an improvised "outdoor workshop" designed to monitor and share the process of creating and maintaining the camp fire needed to transform ceramic bowls or shards, the surface of which will gradually change under the influence of heat.

Rainy weather is expected on Saturday, so after considering all the pros and cons, we decided to move the workshop and happening with the poet Pavel Novotný to the alternate date we are currently looking for. Thank you for your understanding!

One-on-one performance / imaginary journey / phone-call expedition / part of the Intermezzo opening. Reservation required!

The spectator is invited to join the unique shopping experience of contemplating the supermarket universe and re-imagining connection with the objects that can be bought there. The spectator will be guided by the fictional Astronaut via mobile phone by story-telling, walking and following simple, playful instructions and tasks.

This year, the gallery space is being transformed into an open archive, diary or a background for activities that take place and will take place outside it. It becomes a space for encounters, sharing and intertwining. The opening evening will include a sound performance of the American musician based in Berlin, Max Eilbacher.

Introduction of the project Can We Help You? and Andreas Gajdošík's artist presentation.

Art laboratory with artist Nikola Brabcová for those who want to try preparing and mixing their own colors from natural pigments.

What if there were a form of art that is not created primarily as a physical art work, instead representing the result of a collaboration with a specific social group or community?

Andreas Gajdošík is the first guest artist of the program layer Can We Help You? During his stay in Pardubice, he decided to help by cleaning the streets, river banks and statues.

Dutch artist Janneke van der Putten will introduce her work and her upcoming workshop ‘Sunrise to Sunrise’. The objective of her project is to produce in-situ performances which will be recorded in different places in (and around) Pardubice, responding to natural environments, architectures and sites and investigating a cyclic perception of time.

GAMPA traditionally participates in the Pardubice Museum Night, which is part of the Museum Nights Festival. Visit the exhibition space transformed into an open archive of art records that work with the topics of care, cooperation and slowing down.

Singer, performer and visual artist Janneke van der Putten proposes a 24-hour performance and sensorial-based workshop, with the passage of time as inspiration: starting at sunrise and ending at the sunrise of the following day.

Let us remove our social stickers and create a shared space for people without age restrictions. For parents and their children and people without obligations, seniors and teenagers, for people who work or care for the evening, and those who can go to culture without a time limit. Our program will be about intersections in social gatherings, talking, trying to understand people with different life experiences, babysitting together, creative workshops, cultural activism, or learning about the benefits of social diversity.
