Annotation:

"We played so that people would dance; because when you dance, you feel like a god, and you cannot die." (Alessandro Baricco, 1900)

This October marks two years since the terrorist attack outside Tepláreň, which claimed two innocent lives and left many others tragically scarred. How is the queer community coping with this event? How do LGBTI+ individuals feel today in a country where they are continuously subjected to (not only verbal) attacks?

The exhibition Dancing in the Dark will showcase works by 13 artists who seek to answer these questions. Through art, they attempt to articulate the unspeakable and explore ways to move forward, finding joy in life despite everything.
