The combination of the word “tasting” and the letter “V” in the title of the exhibition is intended to indicate that it is a wine tasting on which the entire work of Lukáš Matejka and Štefan Oliš is based. The work itself consists of happening – classic wine tasting. The work responds directly to the functioning of openings and similar events – to elitism in art. Why do people go to the opening? The vernissage is the grand opening of the exhibition, which is usually associated with an art program and refreshments. In these circumstances, people hear the opening speech. Then they are happy to engage in discussions with friends and refreshments already mentioned… The exhibition itself and art often fall into the background. So why wouldn’t wine tasting alone be art?

“Tasting V” consists of a short event, a classic wine tasting in the gallery space. It is a public evaluation of wine made available to the general public. Appropriation or appropriation of the event – wine tasting as an artistic activity. The staged event reconstructs real, live tasting in real time and space and in direct interaction with visitors to the Trenčín M. A. Bazovský Gallery.

Members TRAKT Lukas Matejka and Stefan Oliš participated in Trebišov – Park Camp, organized by OZ Kontext (Peter Valiska-Timečko and Branislav Zurko), as a free continuation of the project from 2014 Light camp. Park Camp was held July 27-August 1 2015. The workshop was again focused on light as a medium and location Trebišov City Park. Works were mainly focused on the performative, visual and intermedia art in public spaces. The main lecturer of the workshop was Tomas Moravek (Institute of Light Design Prague), experienced lighting designer, who works in the Prague area – mainly in theater and dance performances. Participants thus had a unique opportunity to look at working with light slightly differently and try to combine elements of theater and contemporary art.

Within a block trio of lectures for the general public (Moravek, Matejka, Zurko), Lukas Matejka presented his authorship of following the project of the civic association tract. In addition to a series of lectures and presentations portfolios of the participating artists (Lukas Matejka, Stefan Oliš, Petra Klepcová, Stanislav Piatrik, Katarina Hudačinová, Martin Zlievský, Brigita Bialová, Katarina Tribulová, Robert Suchy) were given the opportunity to become familiar with lighting in practice, but also exercise the Norwegian GEPARK who are experienced its nationwide debut. Workshop in Trebišov second year starts a promising tradition of site – specific Scan “camp”, where artists have the opportunity to create an amazing atmosphere in the park under the leadership of interesting lecturers. It offers the possibility of cooperation as well as in future editions, or partnership in other projects.
