The exhibition "In the Beginning Was Fire" is the premiere solo presentation of Slovak painter Adam Šakový in Prague.
The exhibition "In the Beginning, There Was Fire" is organized by the new SPOT Gallery in Prague's Vinohrady from February 25 to March 30. It was opened last September by two enthusiastic gallery owners, Nikola Korčáková and Petr Matoušek. Now, painter Adam Šakový will present his work at SPOT for his first solo exhibition in the Czech Republic. The thirty-seven-year-old Slovak artist will showcase his captivating hyperrealistic paintings complemented by conceptually oriented objects. Most of the works were created by Šakový specifically for this exhibition, so visitors will see them for the first time. The common theme of his works is fire – a fascinating element capable of igniting, warming, and scorching. The curator of the exhibition is Michal Stolárik.

The phenomenon of new circus: Art that changes the rules
New circus is an artistic phenomenon that has gained immense popularity in recent decades. It transforms traditional circus performances into a complex work of art that combines acrobatics, theater, dance, music, and sometimes even multimedia elements. Unlike the classical circus, you will not find acts with trained animals; instead, it focuses exclusively on human abilities, creativity, and emotions. Performances, which often contain deeper messages in addition to great acrobatics and precise choreography, attract millions of visitors around the world.
