John Sanborn ‘Notes on Us’

  • Kunsthalle Praha Prague Czech Republic (map)

Kunsthalle Praha hosts the first-ever solo exhibition of John Sanborn’s work in the Czech Republic, titled Notes on Us. Sanborn initially rose to prominence in the experimental video art scene of the 1970s and 1980s. Subsequently, he contributed to the heyday of MTV’s music video aesthetics and later to the contemporary boom of digital art in Hollywood. Visitors will have the chance to see his monumental nine-channel video installation V+M (2015), which is part of the Kunsthalle Praha Collection and thematizes the mythological story of Venus and Mars.

Together with a series of four digital portraits titled Mythic Status (2015–2016), these works explore themes such as love, self-love, and fluid gender identity. These immersive large-scale projections will bring to life the walls of Gallery 3.
