Work in progress / HOUSE OF RESEARCH
The House of Research has become an established part of the ways Studio ALTA supports artistic development. This year, it hosted three artists coming from different parts of the world, each with their own unique approaches to creation.
The final outcome is a collaborative event prepared in cooperation with Studio ALTA’s program team. It offers a formal experiment in presenting artistic research and serves as an open invitation to explore a variety of artistic practices.
tYhle & Lukáš Karásek: Living room
In the Living Room, furniture transforms into living beings with their own character, and a single room opens the way to an entire parallel world. Lukáš Karásek balances between mask theatre, dance, and circus, setting off on a playful expedition full of imagination and humour.
DetailAljoša Lovrić Krapež and the Team: IS JOY
A leaf blower, a chair, bubble wrap, coat hangers, doors, feathers, an inflatable balloon, nails, pallets, a trampoline, a washing machine — and plenty of ropes pulling everything up to the sky! IS JOY is a performance, installation, and event that explores joy as a force of creation and as a way of relating to the world around us. Bodies, objects, and sound come together to build a vibrating structure that transforms the space into a pulsing organism. At the intersection of puppetry, visual art, and ritual, a place emerges where the relationship between people and things takes on a new form.
DetailTemporary Collective: Last Dance
How do you dance with someone who is no longer there? In the project Last Dance, Tereza Ondrová returns to her solo Call Alice to try to revive the experience of loss during the pandemic. In this one-time solo performance, taking place in an open-air dance hall, Ondrová will dance as one. She dances to heal, and to discover how loss can be transformed.
DetailParent-Friendly Culture & Flash Art #75: Family (Discussion Circle & Launch)
How can culture better reflect and support parents and children? The Parent-Friendly Culture platform and Flash Art magazine invite you to a discussion on accessibility, care, and the search for new pathways in culture — not only for parents. The gathering will also include the launch of the new family-themed issue of Flash Art and the presentation of the platform’s upcoming plans.
DetailTemporary Collective: CALL ALICE (audio-installation) / premiere
The audio installation CALL ALICE is a remediation of the dance performance of the same name, which created the illusion of a dialogue between two women through the voice of an absent character. It captures the creative process during the pandemic, when Tereza Ondrová and Francesca Foscarini explored new ways of collaborating remotely. The installation offers a glimpse into the transformation of dance in the digital age and reveals the personal stories that brought the two artists together.
DetailSPARK: Opening of the Studio ALTA Season
A new beginning, new energy, a springtime spark at ALTA! Join us as we kick off the 17th season and the first year under the guidance of a new programming team. Expect a packed dance program, live music, and a vibrant neighborhood atmosphere under the open sky in Libeň. Plenty of parent-friendly activities and relaxed vibes in the ALTA garden await!
DetailClaire F. Crescini: The Art of Life and Death / work in progress
The Art of Life and Death is a dance solo that explores the fragility and strength of the female body — its ability to create, destroy, experience pleasure, and resist social pressures. Through movement and the lens of eco-sensuality, it reconnects the human body with nature and invites a reconsideration of ingrained ideas about female corporeality.
DetailCONCERT | unplugged | Expandcollapse, Kateřina Jagla, Mariana Jouzová
In this unplugged set, musician Ester Grohová aka expandcollapse, cellist Kateřina Jagla, and harpist Mariana Jouzová will come together for a close to the two-day SPARK program — with dreamy soundscapes under the sky.
DetailMartina Hajdyla / ME-SA: Bodies After Progress
Bodies After Progress is an experiment at the intersection of the past and the present. Martina Hajdyla Lacová follows up her Thalia Award-winning solo Bodies in Progress and explores a new form of shared existence – together and apart. The solo transforms into a duet, without adding any performers.

DetailT.I.T.S.: THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE AIR – An Unusual Musical of Breath
Three bodies are urgently breathing, singing, and dancing to celebrate humanity. As the world burns, where do cracks emerge? This unusual musical of breath gives voice to feelings we can not account for. We are participating in a larger territory. We are shaped, modulated, and syncopated by the world around us, by the forces beyond us. The world we use is the world that uses us. Intuition, instinct, and inner nature lead the audio-visual dance performance by T.I.T.S..
DetailDorota Michalak & Alica Minar: Lush blast
Can dance mend our ties to the land and intimately imbricate us? Lush Blast is a walking performance in an urban park asking what remains of the wilderness in Europe and in us. Come on an unusual walk and connect with the power of movement and nature.
