註釋
The sculptor Vladimír Janousek (1922?1986) graduated from the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague in the studio of Josef Wagner, as did his future wife Vera, along with Miloslav Chlupác, Olbram Zoubek, and Eva Kmentová. A co-founder of the art group UB 12, whose theorists included Jirí ?etlík and Jaromír Zemina, Janousek created both monumental and smaller works, and represented Czechoslovakia at the world exhibition Expo þ70 in Osaka, Japan, taking part in the opening ceremony alongside Japanese artist Tara Okomat. During the period of normalisation, his public and exhibition activity was restricted. Curator Karel Srp identifies three periods in Janousek?s work: crystals and growth, pendulums, and variable sculptures. They are all connected to the motif of time as it appears in the writings of the sculptor?s favourite poet, Frantisek Halas. The works exhibited here are on loan from state and private collections, mainly from the Czech Republic. As one of the most extensive exhibitions of Janousek?s work ? of a scale that was not possible during his lifetime or after 1990 ? the exhibition will include many rare and never-before seen works. The architect of the exhibition, Dominik Lang, has placed nearly two hundred works of art on three floors. Sculptures, objects, and reliefs are accompanied by drawings and photographs, as well as authentic furniture from the Janou?ek villa in Smíchov.00The installation of Janousek?s sculptures is at the same time an interpretation, a stage on which visitors will find a remarkable yet virtually unknown collection of works. In the place of traditional pedestals, the sculptures are placed on recycled exhibition panelling and furniture from Janousek?s personal space. The exhibition also presents Janousek?s kinetic sculptures in a video recording created by Ivan Svoboda and Dominik Lang.00Exhibition: Museum Kampa, Prague, Czech Republic (01.12.2020 - 06.07.2021).
