EXHIBITION: PAULINA SKAVOVÁ UNDERWEAR 2016
Paulina Skavová is one of the most talented and original female artists from the Czech Republic.
Her work deals with femininity and feminism but does so in a very refreshing and optimistic manner, without any hidden anger. Besides her wits and intelligence, she is also great in the craft of whatever media she sets her mind to work in.
She is able to create great monumental works such as perfectly crafted bronze sculptures, as well as to play with concepts and light ideas, pictures, photographs, etc. in a very beautiful manner. Her works have been included in several major exhibitions at the National Gallery in Prague in the past several years.
Her awards include the 2001 Studio Award, Academy of Fine Arts Prague and the 2002 Jany Rybářová´s award, Fundazione Europea Margherita, Italy.
Skavová has created this Exhibition specifically for the Czech Center New York Gallery space. She says that sculpting is a demanding and long process but she has found her own form of art therapy that is somewhere between fashion and object.
Her exhibition playfully deals with Underwear as a women´s weapon.
At the opening there will be a provocative & surprising physical theatre performance by actress/choreographer - Halka Třešnáková that speaks to the themes of the exhibition. 
Exhibition Opening
TUESDAY MARCH 1, 7PM in the Gallery
MARCH 1-30, 10-6PM in the Gallery
