The current exhibition was prepared by the Brno Biennale Association as the 81st exhibition of the cycle Brno - the capital of graphic design.Organizers: SBB / Sdružení Bienále Brno/Brno Biennale Association, Terry's Posters Gallery Prague, University Cinema Scala BrnoThe exhibition is dedicated to the 60th anniversary of the establishment of the International Council of Design ICoD, of which SBB / Brno Biennale Association is the only Czech member.
In addition to 24 offset posters by Jan Rajlich Jr. from the last 5 years (2018–2023), the exhibition also includes graphic greetings/postcards by 15 Czech and Slovak members of the SBB for the 60th anniversary of the ICoD (the day of the establishment of the ICoD, which was established on 4/27/1963 in London under the name Icograda, is celebrated as International Design Day).
Catalogue of the exhibition: http://sbb-bienale-brno.cz/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/JanRajlich-Scala-2023-Katalog-fin-wr.pdfAbout the artist: Jan Rajlich jr. (born June 10, 1950 in Vyškov) although he has lived in Brno practically his entire life, the current exhibition is his first solo poster exhibition in Brno. Recently, his posters could only be seen in Brno at a joint exhibition with his father, Jan Rajlich sr. in HaDivadlo (2010) and in the so-called intervention in the exhibition of the Moravian Gallery in Brno together with his older oil paintings and drawings (2020).Jan Rajlich jr. exhibited posters, graphic design, serigraphy, drawings and paintings at 38 solo exhibitions at home and abroad (Ahmedabad, Bratislava, Emmerich, Fort Collins, Kharkiv, Moscow, Olomouc, Osaka, Prague, Warsaw, Vienna, Vyškov, Zlín , Žilina etc.) and at 170 domestic and 230 foreign collective exhibitions. He is a laureate of the City of Brno Prize (2001).
Jan Rajlich jr. is an architect by education, but from the beginning of his professional career, in addition to a 7-year intermezzo in interior architecture (State Project Institute of Commerce), he tended to draw and paint and at the same time engaged in graphic design, which gained a dominant position in his work. He also taught at the Brno "Šuřka" art school from 1983 and from the 1990s to the present day at the Department of Industrial Design FSI BUT Brno. In the last 20 years, Rajlich's art work is dominated by poster art, in which he makes use of his lifelong experience with drawing, writing and also with computer graphics, of which he was one of the pioneers in our country (since 1987).
The exhibited posters were mostly created as the artist's responses to various international calls for current cultural and social issues.Motives from posters and drawings by Jan Rajlich jr. on T-shirts, etc. - https://janrajlich.t-shock.eu/cs/

Milan Kozelka
On the Road
11. 5. 2022 – 19. 6. 2022
House of the Lords of Kunštát
Curator: Vladimír Havlík, Pavlína Morganová, Jana Písaříková
The artist and author Milan Kozelka (1948‒2014) left an indelible mark on Czech art, mainly in the 1980s and 90s. In the 1960s he devoted himself to poetry and his poems are today placed in the context of the Czech beatnik movement. From the 1970s Kozelka became involved in action art. He drew attention to himself primarily through the series Contacts, which he created at the beginning of the 1980s in the Bohemian Forest. His extreme body actions (during one of them he suspended himself in the white water of the Hamerský stream) are an important contribution to the history of Czech body art. In the 1970s and 80s he simultaneously developed his visual art creations in the form of conceptual drawings or land-art installations. Kozelka always followed current events and his restlessness drove him to more actions, often of a political nature.
The preparation and organisation of Milan Kozelka's exhibition, which will provide a broad evaluation of his versatile, remarkably authentic and simultaneously contradictory work, has been a joint project of several galleries (Brno House of Arts, Gallery of Fine Arts in Cheb and Ústí nad Labem House of Arts). The exhibition is accompanied by the monographic publication Svázáno do Kozelky (which might loosely translate as Tied Limbs) by the Větrné mlýny publishers. It shows for the first time Milan Kozelka and his work in its entirety as a multimedia and conceptual artist, performer, poet, prose writer and initiator of diverse activities. The presentation at the House of the Lords of Kunštát will be unique in making public documentation of some of the previously unknown body-art and land-art works alongside other documents preserved in the archive of Kozelka’s friend and collector Vladimír Meistr. In addition, it will highlight the political and environmental aspect of Kozelka's work. The example of this multifaceted personality can be used to reveal the totalitarian period in all its complexity and ambiguity and show the defiance and fragility of an individual facing the power pressures of society.
The science show is available in Czech only.
