Anna Hulačová

The defining themes of Anna Hulačová’s œuvre are ecology and agriculture. Her drawings and sculptures – of processing machines, plants, animals and people – made of concrete, ceramics and wood take up the tense dualism between utopia and dystopia, which she develops from her core themes. The works are hybrid beings whose physicality and function are transformed, connected and merged into one another. Understanding yesterday in order to enter into dialogue with today and shape tomorrow is a central tenet of the Czech artist (born in 1984). This receives expression in her highly charged artistic language, which spins fictional narratives out of history, biology and ecology in a virtuoso manner.

For the exhibition at Kunstraum Dornbirn, Hulačová combines new works with previously existing ones to create a narrative specifically shaped for the space.
