Signal Festival will host 15 installations, presentations and sounds of cars from Ukraine
Two routes have been prepared for visitors, one of which will first take festival visitors to Vrovice. It is supplemented by a weekly accompanying program at the Kunsthalle Prague, the Center for Architecture and Municipal Planning (CAMP) or the Gallery U Betlmsk kaple.
Signal is a platform that reflects current trends in art, design and performance. We talked with the curators about the fact that it would not be appropriate to touch the darkness of the sides of the wolf, which is a short distance from us and a piece of this swamp goes to the center of Prague, said Maxim Velovsk, who is preparing an installation from broken Ukrainian cars.
He stated that he would meet with observers who doubted the wolf, so he decided to bring something to Prague that illustrates the wolf at the time. Cars destroyed and ravaged by the wolf will be taken to Marinsk Square, where they will act as light objects and symbolically shine into Husova Street, the Marinská Library, institutions where politics or cultural institutions were involved, he said.
According to the applicant, the biggest foreign star is Refik Anadol, a Turkish artist, designer and pioneer in the field of art who works with artificial intelligence. His work, for which he used a huge amount of data about the life of the city, will be shown in the CAMP center. The work on which the courtoi of the festival is based will be exhibited until November 6. A reproduction of one of the works that appeared on the first year of the event and is still one of the most popular will be on display.
The ten year festival is a celebration of creativity and the arts, so I am extremely glad that a number of important Prague institutions joined them, such as the National Theatre, Kunsthalle Prague, Vzlet or BUT, which was the first big one to celebrate with them, said Signal Festival editor Martin Pota. He added that the festival has been visited by millions of people during its existence. In cooperation with Laterna magika, Signal Festival will present a performance combining video mapping and dance, which will take place in Kateinsk zahrad.
