The exhibition Amicable Separation is a dialogue between the themes and stories of Czech and Slovak artists, organized to mark the 30th anniversary of the independence of the two countries after the division of Czechoslovakia.

The project, curated by Charlotta Kotik, highlights the positive cooperation between Czechs and Slovaks and the ongoing cultural exchange between the two nations, which has actively developed despite the separation and independence of the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Today, both Czech and Slovak artists are achieving recognition on the world stage and have become an integral part of the global art world. New York is currently hosting a number of artists from both countries who have been awarded residencies, and prestigious fellowships, or are currently exhibiting in local galleries. The Czech Center New York connects these artists and provides a platform for them to present their aesthetics, working methods, and newly created artworks.

Exhibiting artists: Radek Brousil (SK/CZ), Kristyna and Marek Milde (CZ), Tamara Moyzes / Romane Kale Panthera (SK/CZ), Gregor Petrikovic (SK), Ezra Šimek (CZ), Adam Vačkář (CZ), Martin Vongrej (SK)

Time: 6:00-8:00 pm EDT
