Workplace:Art in Context (English MFA)

Neoconceptual artist uses Architecture as the main tool of expression. He uses a wide range of forms, from objects and installations to site-specific interventions in public spaces. He explores the influence of architecture on people and society. For example, he confronts traditional folk architecture, which is closely linked to a unique context, with a completely opposite, universalistic view of architecture and urbanism. He does not compare whether it is better to live in a prefabricated housing estate or in a log cabin; what is important to him is the role of both these extremes, not only for their inhabitants. Džadoň uses architecture and its elements as a contrasting material for exploring historical memory and its real heritage.
