Epiphany
Video Installation and Navigational Text

Curator: Viera Jancekova

Slovak version of poetic text by Bill Seaman: Martin Solotruk

New media artist Bill Seaman, USA, created a site-specific project Epiphany/Zjavenie in and outside of a former synagogue. The project deals with the local place, architectural elements and social relations and incorporates poetry texts with music, visual art and media in collaboration with the local people.
Inspired by cultural, historical and architectural context of Trnava town, its psychological influence and some details of human body, the artist juxtaposed these elements to the video-work with impressive music and whispered texts in both languages.
Another part of the project is based on exhibiting these poetic texts in Slovak and English version in public spaces of Trnava using the classical frame and material of the street signs.
Bill Seaman is a head of Digital Media Department (Graduate division) at Rhode Island School of Design, where the Artslink residency of Viera Jancekova took place in the year 2002.

Permanent sculpture exhibition of Jan Koniarek (1878 - 1952) Art-historical conception of the exhibition: Luba Belohradska

In 2002 permanent exhibition of sculpture works by Jan Koniarek entered cultural life in Trnava.
Artistic message of Jan Koniarek (30. 1. 1878 Voderady - 4. 5. 1952 Trnava) became substantial for Slovak modern sculpture. The extension of the gallery building of the Koppel house and realisation of permanent exhibition is an exceptional step forward and currently presents approximately 60 works by Jan Koniarek. Not only does the exhibition allow visual experience, the visitors are also enabled to feel and touch the art, as all the sculptures except for those made of marble are destined for haptic experience.
