____________________________________________________________________________________________

The PUBLIC COLLECTION_CZ is based on a gap in a dia – collection discovered at a garbage dump in Munich. The huge inventory of the slide collection shows icons of European art history from antiquity to the present, but not a single image of the art of the socialist era. – a kind of a void in 20th century art history. But it was precisely at this time in the 20th century that the slide medium was in its heyday. The gap in the collection takes us on a journey to the Czech Republic, one of the original countries of socialist art. The main question of the research was: what position does socialist art have in public and private collections in the Czech Republic today?

In cooperation with private collectors and public institutions PUBLIC COLLECTION will be extended to the artistic heritage of the art of the socialist era:

Muzeum umění Olomouc

Univerzita Palackého Olomouc

Vlastivědné muzeum v Olomouci

Masarykova univerzita Brno

Východočeská galerie v Pardubicích

Terezie Petišková / Dům umění města Brna

Pavel Karous Collection

Galerie výtvarného umění v Chebu

Oblastní galerie v Liberci

Západočeská galerie v Plzni

Galerie výtvarného umění Ostrava

Muzeum východních Čech Hradec Králové

Vošp, Sošp a G. EVROPSKÁ 33, PRAHA 6

The “findings” of this research will be made accessible to the public in the cities of Olomouc and Brno. In exchange with passers-by the PUBLIC COLLECTION_CZ will be created and reflected upon in a public discussion with experts in architecture, visual culture and art history.

in the –>  SYNTOPIAN VAGABOND

A public image collection is created through a process of collective image sorting with passers-by and protagonists. The PUBLIC COLLECTION is based on a find of 5000 slides with icons of European art history from antiquity to the present. How is the pre-sorted archive deconstructed and re-sorted? Under which procedural conventions is the PUBLIC COLLECTION created?

The PUBLIC COLLECTION was designed as a collective project by Michaela Rotsch (visual art), Juliane Zellner (urban studies) and Rob Lugo (media).
