Thirty years after the Velvet Revolution, environmental issues remain marginalized by Czech political representation. Yet, it was the protection of the environment that, together with the strife for democracy and human rights, fueled the desire for change in 1989.

The collages on view at Artwall by Gergely László and Katarina Šević pose the distorted and grotesque body as the metaphor for the rise of violence and militancy apparent in today’s society.

In the photographs, naked bodies interweave in unusual poses. On closer look, we see missing limbs or – on contrary – limbs that are superfluous. Figures with arms in place of legs create peculiar beings.

The exhibition Everyday Sexism by Slovak artist Ivana Šáteková at the Artwall Gallery shows situations that women in our society face on daily basis. Comments regarding their appearance, maternity, behavior or means of expression accompany women from childhood to the old age.

Ján Triaška's exhibition Live Long and Prosper displays hand gestures expressing different ideological as well as general human attitudes and approaches. It depicts symbols that are phenomena of today's reality.

By means of her exhibition, Adéla Součková addresses the eternal theme of the relationship between human subjectivity, identity, and corporeality.

The exhibition Usually she is disappointed by an Irish artist Martina Mullaney borrows its title from the radical feminist manifesto, Dialectic of Sex, by Shulamith Firestone.

The exhibition is a result of a cooperation between comics author and street-artist Toy_Box and an international humanitarian organisation Doctors Without Borders.

In this extensive photographic series, the artist deconstructs stereotypization of Roma women in order to present the viewer with images produced from within the lived Roma experience rather than about it.

Where are the limits of normality? And is the concept of normality alone discriminatory for people that are so called neuroatypical?
