works
Marie Lukáčová - Czech interdisciplinary artist, working in a range of mediums including drawing, film, animation, rap music, text and performance. Often her works are multithreaded installations. Lukáčová's work is characterized by directness and playing with human fantasy and the existing order. The fragmentation of references from the fields of politics, mythology, science and pop culture creates a mosaic of the interdependency and complexity of the contemporary world. Her artistic practice crosses the boundaries of genres, from drama to absurdist comedy, employs fiction, humor and elements of the grotesque to create complex exhibition environments that tell stories about today's social struggles. Her exhibitions tend to work with the architecture of the space, like the blank canvases she fills with murals of mythical creatures. They are reminiscent visual notes from past and future, and explain contemporary narratives of society. In 2019, she was a finalist for the Jindřich Chalupecký Prize. She is currently a lecturer at the Center for Audiovisual Studies at the Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague (FAMU). She is also a co-founder of the feminist group The Fourth Wave, which started a debate on sexism in Czech universities. Lukláčová has presented her work in New York, Tokyo, Prague, Budapest and Ljubljana, among other institutions and galleries.
