Russian and Slovak visual artists.

The interest of the young painter Maja Matrková (1983) focuses on humans. She handles the motif with care and from different angles.

The photographer Miro Gasidlo (1960) devotes himself to free photography and graphic design. He takes pictures especially of life in big cities and their architecture, following the contrast of different meanings intersected in the shots. He chooses picture intermingling as technique.

Representative selection of paintings, sculptures and drawings from Slovak and foreign artists.

Marcel Sedlák (1966) surprises in each of his new collections or cycles with a shift in his own painting expression. His current paintings are softer, more multifaceted and multilayered. They inspire to search for the epicentre of energy, the point of origin, the inspiration, thanks to which they were created.

The first exhibition from the cycle about techniques of visual art is dedicated to collage.

Concert cycle at the Apponyi Palace

The exhibition is a beautiful example of the Slovak visual art from the end of the 19th to the first half of the 20th century.

The young photographer Lea Lovišková (1986) is engaged in document, reportage, landscape, portrait, advertising and fashion. She makes arranged photography. The exhibition in the GUBA Gallery shows her works on the subject of dance, to which she has devoted herself for eight years.

The exhibition presents the members of the group of Mikuláš Galanda - A. Barčík, A. Čutek, V. Kompánek, R. Krivoš, M. Laluha, M. Paštéka, A. Rudavský, I. Štubňa und P. Tóth - at the top of their artistic activity in the years 1957 - 1968.

The artist offers to the audience a number of explanations of the subject of his interest – ornament. No matter what form he chooses (abstract or a combination of ornament with human motif), he awakes feeling of something pleasant, something we have in the subconsciousness and is part of our childhood memories.

Exhibition about the origin and the forms of the phenomenon GAME. We will learn more about the history of toys, parlour and sports games as well as art games.

26 Swedish and 28 Slovak artists will prove with their works craftsmanship, the power of folk tradition as well as related aesthetic feeling. The exhibition is a confrontation of the two culturally different, but yet close countries.
