About the work

In her work, Vanda Michalská fuses interest in video and anarchy, especially concerning art and education institutions, including the Academy of Fine Arts, and eventually to neoliberal capitalism in general. She captures a puissant visual aspect of situations linked with them via video, audio, theater, and other media. Her characteristic style of treating image is based on a rapidly made expressive gesture, put into contrast with a precisely flat surface. The artist’s most recent work criticizes large-budget movies as providing no space for alternatives.
