THE X. FILES
Another one of Nitra Gallery’s small-scale Salon exhibitions is dedicated to nude art and its numerous representations in the gallery’s fund of drawings. The collection includes a rather large number of nude drawings, but we have selected only two artists with the highest number of nudes on paper. The artists, their works and life paths are is some way linked to the region of Nitra. “The X. Files” will be a standard genre and theme-focused exhibition.

“(I think) the depicted image is not separated enough from the object and its story.
It is simply not abstract enough…”

Alžbeta Malcová — Secret (Garden)?
This illustrative and casually designed intimate project presented at a solo exhibition by Alžbeta Malcová at Nitra Gallery’s Salon implies an effort to bring around a little bit of illusion and daydreaming that takes place behind the window, behind closed doors, behind the gallery walls.

A Sync at the Psychiatrist’s
A Sync at the Psychiatrist’s is an exhibition that is a direct result of several events that have been synchronised in time. Between Spring 2016 and Summer 2017, the curator of the exhibition had been having a difficult time dealing with personal losses and the subsequent depressions. She started to use the virtual world of a social network to take in (thoughtlessly, but intensely) the daily works of the artist David Cajthaml and the poet Buddy Ungrad. At the same time, over the course of a year, she regularly attended the psychiatrist’s office that seemed to resemble a gallery.
