Pride Gallery

Centre of People in Need organization Langhans, Vodičkova 707/37, 110 00 Prague 1 – New Town

During rainbow week, Langhans – People in Need Center transforms into the Pride Gallery, featuring this year’s hot new contemporary art exhibition, Caution Hot. You’ll have the chance to check out works by eight amazing artists, from up-and-coming talents to established names who’ve won the Jindřich Chalupecký Award. Get ready to dive into the creations of Michal Durda, Jan Durina, Barbora Kleinhamplová, Marie Lukáčová, Jan Matýsek, Ezra Šimek, Mark Ther, and Jaro Varga.

The diverse approaches, media, and themes showcased in the Pride Gallery are united around central topics of family roots, home, self-acceptance, and formation of personal identity. Artists of various identities offer a wide range of authentic and personal perspectives, intentionally going beyond the usual label of queer art. Curators Matěj Forejt and Pavel Liška present the theme of family, the focus of this year’s festival, from a multi-layered perspective that transcends the traditional, conservative understanding of the concept.

Some of the works on display will be seen in Prague for the very first time, others maybe for the last. And some pieces were created specifically for this exhibition.

The goal of the Pride Gallery is to draw the Prague Pride crowd into the world of contemporary art and bring the traditional contemporary art audience to the Prague Pride festival. With any luck, these two worlds will intersect beautifully at Langhans.
