Together with Július Koller (1939-2007) and Alexander Mlynárčik (1934), Stanislav Filko (1937) belongs to the founders of conceptual art in Slovakia. A break with the idea of a “hanging picture” meant expressing thoughts and images of the world in the form of a text, photography or an installation. Filko was a key figure in the Bratislava art circles of the 1960s and 1970s. This period constitutes an important chapter in the history of visual art, which is gaining increasing influence. Filko spent twenty years in exile in the USA; his cosmological attitude to art creation is hypersensitive, though markedly masculine. This short retrospective of his immensely rich work was published on the occasion of his participation in the 2005 Venice Biennale, where he exhibited in the joint Czech and Slovak pavilion. 


The book is produced in a bilingual Czech and English edition.
