Performance: This is not a representation
Come to Leire de Meer's public performance as part of the Fotograf Zone festival, which will take place on October 8 at Tempo in Smíchov!
Artist Leire de Meer (they/he/she) proposes a form of non-verbal dialogue in "This is not a representation". This participatory ritual explores the physical and political labor of holding bodies, reclaiming a sense of interdependence.
The audience will receive a set of instructions. The audience will be invited to gently wrap another participant in a vast white cloth, lift them together with others, walk in a circle, and lay them down. You may choose to be wrapped, to help lift, or to bear witness. Through this silent, repetitive cycle, the audience tansforms into a community, practicing a direct act of collective care and responsibility. The large white canvas, both tool and witness, becomes a shared membrane, a cocoon, a shroud.
No prior experience is needed. The artist will facilitate a safe and respectful environment for all to participate at their own comfort level.

Reveries For Fragile Beasts
We are pleased to invite you to the opening of Reveries For Fragile Beasts, featuring works by Apian and Sarah Dubná.
Tamara Moyzes & Shlomi Yaffe – GOLEMET (Epigenetika)
The exhibition GOLEMET by Tamara Moyzes and Shlomi Yaffe will open at the Fotograf Zone Gallery on Tuesday, April 21 at 6 PM, as part of the Video Room program. The opening will take place concurrently with the exhibition Reveries For Fragile Beasts. The exhibition Golemet presents an artistic and conceptual framework that understands inherited trauma not as a metaphor, but as a lived, embodied reality. Drawing on contemporary research in epigenetics and trauma studies, the project approaches memory as something carried in the body—activated in moments of rupture, threat, and renewed exclusion.
Dialogues on Art Reproductions: I. Lick Your Finger, Turn the Page
Reproduction as an object we come into physical contact with. Touch as a mode of perception that returns the image to our hands.
