Annotation

Do we like endings, or do we avoid them? Are they beautiful? Elegant? Chaotic? Liberating? Do they haunt us, or bring relief? What does an ending actually look like?

The authors of the book Martin Jenča and Katarína Poliačiková have prepared an evening combining a visual presentation, lecture, sermon, conversation, and musical performances — all together, all about endings.

Endings take countless forms. They can be quiet or explosive, elegant or chaotic, liberating or devastating. Some haunt you. Others bring a relief you did not know you needed.

Together, we will imagine how to end things in today’s world — and how to simply sit within an ending instead of escaping from it into a new beginning.

Graphic poster with a beige background and the large black title “PREDSTAV SI KONIEC” (“Imagine the End”) across the top. At the center is a photograph in an ornate gold frame depicting a person lying on a pavement across a yellow road line. Below the image are the names Martin Jenča, Katarína Poliačiková, Nora Barczi, Richard Hronský, and others. A boxed line at the bottom reads “SPECIAL GUEST: DENIS BANGO, EMIL MARK (DK).” The overall design combines dramatic typography with an ironically staged photographic scene.

About the book:

Catalogue of Endings is a collection of imagined endings. Art, film, pop culture, personal memories, and philosophy meet in short texts accompanied by images and essays. The book invites you to imagine what an ending really looks like. Not a new beginning in disguise, but an ending itself. For everyone who has ever struggled to leave, let go, or simply say: this is the end.
