Kateřina Šedá + BATEŽO MIKILU

Künstlerin und Künstlergruppe, Taiwan auf der Biennale Venedig 2013


Kateřina Šedá:
* 1977 Brno, Czech Republic; lives there.

Šedá's work often engages a community to explore subjects of relationships, cultural identity, and daily politics in an urban setting. Through creating social games and social sculptures, she invites individuals from a local community to participate in a process to resolve real, shared issues. When this process becomes a switching point to overturn reality and inspire new perceptions, the participatory experience becomes a process of subjectification: a new reality is born from a game. Šedá's practice sheds light on humanity and a better common tomorrow.

Selected exhibitions include Talk to the sky 'cause the ground ain't listening, Kunstmuseum Luzern, 2012; From Morning Till Night, Tate Modern, 2011; MAM Project 013: Kateřina Šedá, Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, 2010; 10th Lyon Biennial, 2009; Manifesta 7, Bolzano, 2008; 5th Berlin Biennale, Berlin, 2008; Documenta 12, Kassel, 2007.


BATEŽO MIKILU (Barča, Terka, Žorko, Milča, Kiki, Lucka), formed on December 12th 2012, is a sextet of schoolmates from high school in Zastávka who decided in 2011 to change their role in this place and thus improve the relationships surrounding them. They were deterred neither by the reactions of the locals nor by the distance of their places of residence—each of them comes from another town in the vicinity.

The group consists of the following six students: Barča (* 1996), Terka (* 1996), Žorko (* 1997), Milča (* 1997), Kiki (* 1996), and Lucka (* 1997).
