– Pavol Godiška~Martin Matoušek – Yesterday's Adoration – 11/09~27/09 2026
You are entering a sanctuary of yesterday’s temptations and eternal landscapes. The Yesterday’s Adoration project is a ritual dialogue between two distinct artistic positions that together transform the gallery space into a temple of freedom and ephemerality. Martin Matoušek layers monumental, material worlds full of raw mixtures that act as the foundations of a new reality. Pavol Godiška inserts fragile, temporary structures into them – objects on the borderline between high aesthetics and raw trash. Together, they create an aesthetic pillory for our desire for eternity
and artistic urgency. Beneath the surface of this immersive installation, however, beats a profound inner gravity and human gesture. It is a clash of two radical approaches to matter: Pavol, with an almost ritual sensitivity, molds and transforms everyday material into breathtaking, fragile works, while Martin, with brutal force, rolls heavy layers of paint, giving shape to raw existence. Yesterday’s adoration is thus not merely a memory of faded glory, but physical proof of how deep one must reach into one’s own inner self to leave a trace.
