A unique concept of interesting original exhibitions for children, curated by Radek Wohlmuth, art historian, art critic and publicist, independent curator.
"This is an experimental gallery project primarily aimed at a child audience. Its content is the regular preparation of curated exhibitions of respected artists of the young and middle generation, which should introduce children and their parents to the world of contemporary art in a friendly way. It is not about approaching children through infantile stylisation, but about trying to create an exhibition format that is able to convey lively themes, techniques and artistic media that can be further developed through accompanying programmes," explains Radek Wohlmuth.
The gallery focuses primarily on the child visitor and provides a glimpse through interactive installations to traditional art forms with the possibility of interacting and connecting with each other. Children are thus introduced to the world of art in an experimental and playful way.
"Small, large exhibitions can equally work with interactivity based on exploratory play or simply favour the child viewer formally, for example by the height of the hanging of the paintings. The visual form of the exhibition and the ability to communicate its content are equally important, but they need not be in balance. The goal is not only education itself, but above all the creation of an environment that seeks to remove the traditional barriers and inhibitions between contemporary art and the mainstream viewer. In the long term, for a regular visitor to such projects, art should become a normal part of life in the sense of one of the principles of looking at the world and a way of communicating about it," adds Radek Wohlmuth.
The gallery programme is implemented with the financial support of the Hradec Králové Region, the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic, the State Fund for Culture of the Czech Republic, the GESTOR Foundation for Contemporary Art and GESTOR - Protective Union of Authors, z.s. The media partner is Czech Radio - Hradec Králové and Our Broumov Region.
