Venice Biennale 2019 - Stanislav Kolíbal to represent the Czech Republic
Under the direction of Dieter Bogner, the artist will present a project called "Former Uncertain Anticipated". Following in the footsteps of Jana Želibská, Stanislav Kolíbal will play on oppositions between "stability and instability, unambiguity and ambiguity, [and] certainty and uncertainty".
The artist (b.1925) "will produce a wall drawing that will refer to the architecture of the pavilion itself, which was designed by Otakar Novotný in 1926". More via ArtNews.
