Ready, Set, Go!

This full colour, 64-page, Slovak-English catalogue was published on the occasion of the exhibition “Ready, Set, Go!“, which took place at the Representative Halls from July 26th until September 23rd 2012. Authors of the catalogue’s graphic design are Marek Kianička and Martin Derner.

The exhibition project by curator Omar Mirza, taking place during the 30th Summer Olympics in London, presented a varied selection of works related to the theme of sports, created by contemporary artists from Slovakia and abroad. Sport is a multifaceted phenomenon; therefore it was shown from different points of view – serious and humorous.

For easier orientation and understanding of its individual layers, the exhibition was divided into several free thematic groups: art connected to sports in specific ways which critically comments on various political and social problems; sport as a physical activity with the active participation of visitors; topics such as memory, history, recycling, subjective experience; artworks dominated by humour, irony and absurdity.
