Premiere of a new short documentary from our production. Enjoy the atmosphere of the film premiere and the subsequent discussion with the filmmakers.
The short documentary film Signal of the Eighties, produced by Telegraph Gallery and directed by Michael Bukovansky, offers a distinctive reflection on the Czechoslovak art scene of the 1980s. The film is a follow-up to the Signal IV: The Eighties exhibition project from 2024, which presented a selection of unofficial mainstream works from the Robert Runták Collection at the Telegraph Gallery. The film composes a vivid mosaic of personal stories of the artists, curators and owner of the collection, while revealing how the defiance and desire for free creation at the time shaped a new visual sensibility that still resonates in the context of Czech culture today.
