The Exhibitor and His Spectators
Pavel Karous, Michal Pěchouček, Pavel Sterec, Dušan Zahoranský

Curators: Martin Mazanec and Rostislav Koryčánek

The creator of an exhibition is a person who, placing full trust in viewer perception, directs his/her efforts toward galleries or museums. The slightly old-fashioned term 'exhibitor' plays an important role in identifying the theme of this group exhibition. The word 'exhibitor' indicates an individual who does not necessarily have to be a curator, but someone who is responsible for the composition of artifacts located in a public space. An exhibitor is rarely a theorist, collector, artist, or the director of an exhibition space.
The four invited artists may be considered a temporary group, having created a scenic unit, after joint consultation, composed of several individually conceived components, for the mutual presentation of art works. A sub-theme to the 'exhibitor' is the experience of the viewer's perception of art in the exhibition space, as well as the viewer's perception of the forms and genres of art. The ultimate aim is to address the viewer's sentiment, while avoiding falling into speculation, excessive formalism, self-serving irony and nostalgia.
