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.
Reveries For Fragile Beasts is a group exhibition based on the idea of fragility as a shared condition that enables a more sensitive perception and new forms of interspecies coexistence.
The Swiss project Apian develops a speculative institutional framework called The Ministry of Bees, which explores the relationship between humans and bees as a historically and ecologically conditioned coexistence. This “ministry” acts as a mediator between the species. It collects and preserves the memory of this relationship while seeking ways to reformulate it in the current context of the climate crisis.
Building on this approach, Czech artist Sarah Dubná uses drawings engraved directly into plaster to explore subtle, physical, and situational dimensions of perceiving space and the living environment.

Golemet – What Do We Carry Without Having Lived It Ourselves?
How do experiences of the past become inscribed in the lives of future generations? How is trauma transmitted—consciously and unconsciously—and how does it shape human relationships? This discussion with psychotherapists Věra Roubalová and Dana Pokorná will focus on the intergenerational transmission of trauma, from psychological and relational patterns to biological contexts. It will explore how the past is reactivated in the present and how we can work with this legacy consciously. The discussion will be moderated by Pavlína Šulcová, director of the Bubny Center for Memory and Dialogue.

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.
