Martin Lukáč sets off for New York in 2024. He doesn’t run away – he searches. He leaves the comfortable position of a recognized artist whose works are part of important art collections and heads to an environment where he is “just another painter”. The Big Apple becomes a challenge for him – a port that offers the opportunity to abandon established patterns and embark on a journey of transformation. Looking at Lukáč’s work in NYC, it is clear that the city that never sleeps is a source of constant energy and unexpected encounters for him. In the chaos of the city streets, among countless sensations, a new imagination is born. In an environment where different approaches and artistic expressions intersect, it becomes clear how the pulsating rhythm of the city enters his painting palette. Each new painting is a reaction to this world that constantly asks new questions.

Radical Tenderness in Motion - dance workshop with Tereza Ondrova and Temporary YOUNG in the exhibition
Galerie Rudolfinum
The dance workshop led by Tereza Ondrová and Temporary YOUNG (David Králík, Emma Fiala, Natalie Tun) is based on the presence of the body, the cathartic dimension of humor that is inscribed in the body expression and gestures of each person. It is about the joy of moving together or being able to dance together. It is a space to meet the work of Tereza Ondrová and Temporary YOUNG, but also to make new friends - as the workshop is for general public, no level of dance training is needed. Important is the motivation and desire to move together, even on the basis of playful rules or instructions. Dance is not ephemeral. It is living, breathing, pulsating, sweaty evidence of what makes us fundamentally human.
Available for viewing, the COUNCIL LOUNGE on the ground floor offers beautiful historical furniture. The dominant feature is the original painted wooden ceiling.
